Leslie Francesca Designs creates bold and unique jewelry inspired by the beauty and spirit of the natural world. Her jewelry is fun, innovative, and eye-catching, and can often spark a conversation. Each item is handmade and thoughtfully designed to bring out the special qualities of the gemstones she works with. From tiny opal studs to chunky crystal rings to sparkly geode necklaces, Leslie Francesca has something for everyone.
Leslie is proud to run a sustainable and eco-friendly jewelry business. Her materials are all high quality and naturally sourced. She works personally with stone cutters, and all jewelry is shaped and electroplated in house. Recycled materials are used whenever possible – both in her jewelry and in her office.
Leslie is a life long artist from the San Francisco Bay Area. While working at a bead store in Berkeley, CA, she found her calling in jewelry…and the rest is history. She has studied jewelry design and gemology around the world and worked for some time as a fine jeweler. But her true passion is in designing elegant earthy jewelry that everyone can enjoy.
