    I don’t wear jewelry.
    It usually makes me uncomfortable.

    But whenever I see the exquisite artistry of Jelena Behrend resting ever so gracefully on a clavicle my heart melts.

    In the aftermath of the passing of my parents, I came into the possession of two beautiful little objects created by my father in gold.

    We loved our experience with Jelena! She was thoughtful, warm, and generous with her time and created gorgeous custom rings on an impressively fast timeline.

To top it all off, Jelena and her wife, Ruta, were excellent hosts, making us coffee and giving us well wishes when we picked up our rings the morning of our wedding.
