OUR STORY
THE BRAND
Handmade by Vluvv is a women-owned LatinX business and we make high-quality handcrafted jewelry that is waterproof, sweat-proof, tarnish-free, and hypoallergenic.
Our designs are minimal, classic, and suitable for everyday wear. In addition, we source one-of-a-kind beads and crystals that really set our designs apart from the rest.
​
In addition, we are committed to making a social impact by supporting independent animal rescues around the world with every purchase.
Our DESIGNER
Hi! my name is Vanessa Fry and I started off in this industry because I couldn't find high-quality jewelry, that was esthetically pleasing and that wouldn't tarnish, turn green or cause skin reactions.
I'm a self-taught jewelry maker who fell in love with the process. My love and curiosity for jewelry-making lead me to continue with formal training and education.
​
I have also been fortunate enough to have been accepted and completed the following programs.
​
- LACI Founders Business Accelerator Program: Cohort 7 (2022/2023)
​
- LACI Equity Innovation Program: Cohort 2 (2023)
​
- Bank of America & eCornell's Women Entrepreneurship Program (2024)
