My love for jewelry began at a young age and has carried a significant role throughout my life. During my school years I worked at multiple bead-stores and studied metal-smithing on the side. After interning in NYC’s diamond district, I decided to pursue my passion more seriously and opened Stone Cooper upon graduating in 2013.
Stone Cooper comes from a blend of family names. Stone from my Sliclen family ancestors who were Stone Cutters in NYC during the 1800s. Cooper comes from my middle name. Through my business, I strive to create unique and meaningful forms of ritual adornment for the old souls and the young at heart.
