Jade Trau is a modern fine jewelry house built on one idea: diamonds are meant to be worn, not saved for someday. Pieces are designed to be layered and stacked, mixed into your everyday rotation rather than pulled out for one occasion a year. The aesthetic is easy, expressive, and personal, the kind of jewelry that changes a little depending on how you wear it.
Jade grew up on 47th street, in the middle of New York's diamond district. Before she ever designed a piece, she spent nearly two decades as a diamond buyer, so her eye for a stone came long before the label did. She still carries a loupe everywhere. After almost 20 years in the business, she says she still gets excited every time she looks at a diamond, like it's the first one. Her family has been in the business for generations, and it shows in how she chooses a stone before she ever builds around it.
There's something about the way her pieces stack, mixed metals, different sizes, studs and hoops layered in without ever looking too matched. It's the kind of ear you build over time, one piercing at a time, not all at once. If you want a look like this, come see our piercer, in store every friday, and let's start building yours.
