Lovetatum™ Jewelry was established in the summer

of 2006. However, I have been designing and making

jewelry since I can remember. I began selling to

the local high-end beach boutiques in my hometown

of Point Pleasant, New Jersey and later developed

my jewelry into a full-time business. I found that there

is a high demand for my unique style of jewelry.

It expresses my point of view as a young artist

who is ahead of the trends, while the sheer quality

appeals to a wide range of clientele.

I am now based out of La Jolla, California and find

that I draw my inspiration from international beach

life, and translate it into jewelry for any and every

occasion. I use a combination of corals from the

Caribbean, briolettes from India and China, and

hand-carved stone pendants from Hong Kong

and Bali, just to name a few.

My unique pieces are handmade

with sterling silver and adorned

with semi-precious stones

and pearls from all over the world.

To me, it is important that

my jewelry express something

personal and individual.

Every man and woman

who wears Lovetatum™ should feel

that his/her piece is special.

My philosophy has always been to

inspire creativity and promote

positive energy in the world, and

I will continue to reach and enrich…

My travels to Barbados and Jamaica

inspired me to create a great

statement piece. I had a vision of

it in my mind, but what I was

looking for was not out there…yet.

I dreamt of an authentic coral piece that

had brilliant color, amazing details and

embodied the life of the Caribbean.

Now I’ve created just that and more,

with the coral collection.

the turquoise collectionThe first piece of jewelry I owned was a turquoise ring from a local beach boutique.

Everyone should enjoy the natural beauty of turquoise. It is one of the oldest stones known

and will bring wisdom to your wardrobe! If given a turquoise piece by a loving friend, that stone

would protect the wearer from negative energy and bring good fortune. Turquoise is a symbol of

friendship, brings peace to the home and is just the timeless color we need for the season.

As a kid, I would play with my sister’s stone collection

and was so fascinated by the natural crystallization in the

stones. A bed of tightly packed crystals is the common

growth habitat particular to quartz. When the bed has

a very fine crystalline structure similar to sugar or salt crystals,

it is known as Druzy. It was love at first sight.

If it looks edible, I want it! The fun, whimsical appeal of

my rock candy collection has everyone wearing smiles.

I incorporate freshwater pearls and a rare stone called

atomic labradorite. There is only one company in the world

that heat-treats labradorite to bring out the natural metallic

in the stone. Enjoy it, have fun with it and love it!

When I saw the purple lace agate for the first time,

I knew I had to create a very special custom piece.

I wanted to feel uplifted, and what better way than to

put bursts of vibrant purple and olive jade with a hint of

black. It’s dangerously colorful, but oh, so elegant.

My mantra is to create jewelry that inspires.

This time it’s for both men and women.

It’s doubly special because of its meaning

and its green nature. Be the change you want to

see in the world, a positive reinforcement piece

designed to motivate us to achieve greatness.

Made from recycled sterling silver with antique

charms that are interchangeable. Now go. Inspire.
