No two stones are alike – each piece has it's own unique characteristics, making a collection of jewelry that is perfectly imperfect.
These words are what complete the essence of Leslie Francesca Designs. Born and raised right here in the Bay, she has always been intrigued with anything that is creative. Her eye for design has allowed her to attend the Gemological Institute of America in Los Angeles. There, she learned more about her passion and that rare opportunity took her to Italy. In Italy, Leslie learned how to combine stones with precious jewelry, creating beautiful pieces of art to wear.
After her travels, she came back to the Bay Area with a mission in mind. She wanted to bring her designs to life and thus, was the beginning of her company.
In each piece of stone and gem that Leslie works with, she strives to use all elements of nature: earth, fire, water, and air. She believes that nature is one of the moving forces in her design and hopes that people who buy her jewelry will recognize this when they put an accessory of hers on. The quote that embodies her work is by Rumi Kaur and says "let the beauty you love be what you do. There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the earth."
Thank you to Leslie Francesca for her beautiful creations and heart for a creative lifestyle. Come on down to pick up a Leslie Francesca accessory!
