about

laura mar is an independent jewelry line based in california, making small-batch and one-of-a-kind pieces for people who like their jewelry a little quirky, a little whimsical, and a little bit weird.

inspired by flowers, celestial things, vintage nostalgic, nature, and the little wonders hiding in plain sight. each piece is handmade using recycled metals, embracing the little imperfections that make something feel truly made by hand.

i’ve been a lifelong daydreamer and art lover, with a habit of packing up and starting fresh. i’ve called japan, the uk, mexico, chicago, new york, austin, and now california home. each place leaving a little bit of magic in my work. tokyo is where i spent the most time (ages 11–18), and it still finds its way into everything i create.

when i’m not in the studio, i’m at the movies, at live music shows, or volunteering with wildlife. i go on a lot of sunset walks (undeniably cheesy, but true) and i’m usually hanging out with my two cats and my dog (see photos below.)

i created this space to share my metalsmithing adventures & art experiments with you!
