Ashleigh Branstetter

From my New Orleans studio just steps from the French Quarter, I handcraft every piece with the same wonder I felt the first time I held a rough diamond under the microscope — that moment when light, stone, and story all collide.

This city taught me that jewelry isn’t about perfection; it’s about personality. My signature Ruffle© is proof: a little imperfection in the gold that makes every piece dance differently on every woman.

When you wear my work, you’re wearing a little bit of New Orleans magic — bold, soulful, and unapologetically alive.

Thank you for letting me be part of your story.  

With light & love,  

Ashleigh, xxoo
