Stakora Jewelry

I love when new brands pop up and truly stand out. Maybe it’s true what they say about challenging times inspiring art, because it wasn’t so long ago that Stakora came on the scene and I have to say, they have done something truly simple and elegant when it comes to jewelry.

Their motto is that everything is handcrafted just for you. Stakora is a direct-to-you model and what I love about it is that it makes your jewelry super personalized. You can go on their site and pick everything from metal and gemstone to length and engraving (We’ll get to that soon). You get to see a digital mock-up of your design before you hit checkout, which is such an added value, because well, we aren’t all jewelry designers, so it’s nice to see the finished product of our crazy imaginations! Their custom fine jewelry is then handcrafted right here in Montreal and delivered to your doorstep. 

Most of my jewelry, the really special pieces, are valuable to me because they have a memory attached or feel really personal. The thing I love about Stakora is that you can engrave any piece with your initial or name (or a statement you’d like to make!). Everything can be made just for you and can reflect you as a person. I really love that.

Ethically sources and 100% conflict-free, this local gem has high quality products at accessible pricing. Everything is genuine 14K gold – I opted for Solid Yellow Gold pieces. I got my name on my personalized necklace in the elegant font, which I think I’ll stack with some of my other gold pieces. I think it’s cute and playful to mix diamonds with metals and layer up some lengths. It looks really nice with a button-down shirt, as it adds a pop of bling to your neckline.

I also got the stackable bead ball ring along with the personalized initial signet ring, which I engraved with a “J”. I know a lot fo people opt for the full initial of their first and last name, but sometimes just the one letter really stands out with a bold sense of status.

Gold jewelry is truly multi-functional. From professional to playful, formal to casual, you can add a gold piece to any outfit and just like that you go from plain to glam. Jewelry like the Stakora pieces are not a passing fad, this type of customized pieces are timeless and can be passed down to your little ones or shared with best friends. Check out their site and share it with a friend, now more than ever it’s time to support the arts and our local businesses!
