About Karii Levy

Hi! I'm Karii Levy, founder of Circle of Friends Jewelry & Gems. I created Circle of Friends 3 years ago, born out of a passion to create and work with my hands and the thrill of my new found time, as both of my kids were in school.

I was a frequent visitor at my local bead store where I purchased everything I needed to make my first pair of earrings I gave as a gift. It was so fulfilling to hand make my friend a gift with her style and personality in mind. That night, I presented the earrings to my friend and the "Lauries" were born! Next thing I knew, I had 4 orders by the end of the week. That is when I knew that this was my calling! Creating custom jewelry inspired by my friends has been a dream come true.

Then, it was time for my first open house. My friends and their friends came and every piece of jewelry sold out! I met more women who wanted custom pieces and added more styles to my line. Every new piece was just as exciting as the last and all of the wonderful women in my circle grew and grew. And that is what brought me to where I am today, creating my popular limited-edition custom designed jewelry.

I love doing what I do, and none of it would be possible without the amazing group of women and women owned businesses that have inspired my work and drive. If you are a retailer or boutique, I invite you to "Join the Circle" which will enable you to offer your customers rare, unique jewelry that can bring them as much joy as so many others who are owners of my creations.
