The Hammered Atelier Collection: Hand‑Forged Jewelry with Soul

The Hammered Jewelry Atelier Collection grew out of my love for texture and the beauty of handcrafted work. Nothing is ever rushed or mass‑produced. Every piece begins as a simple strip or wire and slowly transforms into something with character, warmth, and a story all its own. 🛠 Why I Love Hammered Metal Hammered jewelry has a soul. No two pieces ever come out exactly the same, and that’s my favorite part. Each strike leaves a tiny impression, a little moment frozen in metal. And when the light hits those textures, wow! Copper brings this gorgeous, earthy warmth that deepens over time and Aluminum has a soft, bright glow that stays lightweight and comfortable. Both metals respond beautifully to hammering, each in their own way.  The Process Behind Every Piece The process for making a hammered bracelet or any hammered piece of jewelry is simple, but intentional: Cut the metal, smooth the edges, hammer the texture, shape the bracelet, tweak it, polish it and there you have it....

From Costume to Curated: The Evolution of Mon Petit Bijou

 Hello Mon Petit Bijou Family,

As we step into a brand‑new year, I’m thrilled to share something truly special. Mon Petit Bijou is entering a new chapter — one shaped by artistry, intention, and a deeper commitment to creating pieces that feel as meaningful as the moments you wear them for.

Beginning in January, our studio will be transitioning from primarily costume jewelry and adding a curated collection of boutique, higher‑quality designs. Each piece will be crafted with natural pearls, gemstones, refined techniques and the same heartfelt attention and you’ve always known — now taken to a more luxurious level.

This shift has been inspired by you: your stories, your celebrations, your desire for jewelry that lasts, that feels personal, that carries a touch of quiet elegance. I’ve listened, learned, and poured that inspiration into what comes next.

You can expect:

More premium materials that age beautifully

More artisanal craftsmanship in every detail

More timeless designs meant to be treasured, not just worn

More intention behind every collection

Thank you for growing with me, believing in my work, and allowing Mon Petit Bijou to evolve with grace and purpose. I can’t wait to share what’s coming — and I hope these new pieces bring you as much joy as they’ve brought me in creating them.

With much love,

Lori  

Founder & Designer, Mon Petit Bijou llc

Supporting Small Businesses, It Matters

Join our email list & get a discount on your first order & get a sneak peak at new arrivals It is easier than ever to order online. A few clicks and it's at your door before you even remember that you bought it! But when you choose to shop small, you're doing something more meaningful than just buying stuff from a manufacturer. You're supporting a real person, a dream, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes work. Every time someone places an order with a small business, it’s a BIG deal. There’s usually a happy dance involved. Seriously, it's not just a sale, it's a celebration. Because that order means so much more than just money. It means someone out there connected with the piece and that makes it all worth it. That necklace you bought? It wasn’t mass-produced in a factory. The pieces were picked out, put together, and packaged by hand—often with a cup of coffee nearby and maybe a cat sitting on the desk watching it all happen. At least mine does anyway. 🐾...
