About Vanessa

Vanessa Kandiyoti was raised in a Turkish home filled with superstition and beautiful traditions. She studied law, and always loved jewellery and culture. She discovered a love for stones on a backpacking adventure to Latin America, and never looked back.

“Jewels and stones can make you feel special”, she says, and this is what she wants to achieve with her jewellery. Making women who wear her “ good luck charms ” feel protected whilst looking strong and elegant. All her jewellery is made in Turkey with carefully chosen conflict free stones, and are available in white gold, yellow gold and rose gold. Vanessa also started a website, The Jewel Process, for creative women, who are keen to start their own business and need a little help.

“We all have a jewel inside of us. Sometimes it takes time, energy and strength to access it. Once we start feeling the shine and the integrity of it, we can only be brought forward.”
