About
Laying out by day, serving the local catch by night I grew up on the beaches and restaurants of southern NJ. Surrounded by its natural beauty sprinkled with old Victorian B&B’s I was transfixed by washed up treasures and hand done gingerbread decorating each wooden home. Unsure what to do with my own life until something very shiny caught my eye.
Initiated into the jewelry world via antique diamonds and rings at an estate dealer, most memorably the day a couple came in looking for an engagement ring. As the ring passed over the counter, the proposal happened right there. Gushing and popping champagne, this was forever. Like a grain of sand turned to pearl, Tf slowly began to grow from there.
Eventually I made it up stream to NYC’s diamond district to learn from the best of the best. From sales jobs to production bench gigs, and many morning runs to the district. I came to understand what I love most about this craft are the stories behind our rings.
Threefold’s Start
Bench notes…
Each time a ring is sold you support my dream and the many jewelers I get to work with. I love this industry and have been working in it since 2018. As it grows so do I. We wish to always evolve.
I source from stone dealer who are expanding ways to increase our humanity back into mining and manufacturing, something our industry (and many) is not known for-yet.
Using recycled metals, fairmined gold, and stones with increased traceability and transparency are my material goals as I grow. I also like to keep my local relationships alive with the New York City Diamond District and Jewelers Row in Philadelphia jewelry communities for casting, repair, chain, tools, and sourcing.
Its progress not perfection. As Tf and I learn we promise to hold ourselves both as a human and business, accountable making our best educated decisions to leave the world better than we found it. With respect and love for our shared Pale Blue Dot.
With gratitude,
Sarah & Tf
