Who We Are

Hey there! We’re the duo behind Color Ray Jewelry — partners in life, art, and adventure, creating handcrafted jewelry that celebrates the natural beauty of stones and the magic of metalwork.

A man and a woman taking a selfie outdoors, smiling. The man has a mustache, beard, and piercings, wearing a black shirt with white floral patterns. The woman has vibrant blue hair, bold makeup, and is wearing a black lace top, necklaces, and earrings, with a wooden fence and green foliage in the background.
A man with a dark beard, nose ring, and mustache is sitting at a table, drawing a detailed, black-and-white illustration of a fantasy creature. He is wearing a black beanie, a floral Hawaiian shirt, and a graphic t-shirt. The background shows a bed with cushions, plush toys, and stuffed animals on it.

We’ve both been artists our whole lives — always sketching, sculpting, building, imagining. Creativity has always been a core part of who we are. So when we fell in love and discovered a shared passion for beautiful minerals and colorful stones, it felt inevitable that we’d build something together.

A woman with brightly colored blue hair styled in shaved sides looks at a portrait of a man with tattoos and a halo, displayed on an easel outdoors during sunset.

Our weekends became rockhounding road trips across Southern California. We’d dig through the dirt and collect anything that caught our eye. Over the years, we developed a deep appreciation for the textures, colors, and energy of natural stones — and a sharp eye for quality. While we don’t source every stone ourselves, our background in collecting helps us handpick and work with gems that feel truly special.

The person on the right has a beard and mustache, is wearing a beige sleeveless shirt and beige pants, and has tattoos on their arms. They are standing close together, with the person on the left leaning into the other.

Eventually, we found our way to silversmithing. We turned our garage into a home studio, taught ourselves the craft, and began designing jewelry that brings together our love for raw materials, storytelling, and creative expression.

ColorRay Jewelry is the meeting point of our two biggest passions: making art and loving rocks. Every piece we make — from bold statement rings to delicate pendants — is a collaboration between nature’s beauty and our hands.

Thanks for supporting our journey and wearing a little piece of our story.
