Crafted like art. Worn like History.

We believe that each piece of jewelry has a story to tell, intimately woven into the details. From the sourcing of the material, to the inspiration from which it was born, as it begins its journey from generation to generation.

This especially rings true through our custom pieces. Our clients become like family, as we connect through this intimate and special process. It is our greatest joy be able to bring these beautiful pieces to life and send them off on their journeys with their people.

With each piece being one-of-a-kind and hand sculpted out of a block of wax, the result really is a piece of art. Art we can wear on our bodies. We hope that your Seelye piece pushes the boundaries of what we are used to seeing in the jewelry industry and reconnect us with our creative expression.

Love, Kathy and Hannah

We specialize in repurposing our clients heirloom stones, as well as curating responsibly sourced stones for our customers, with a focus on antique and old mined natural diamonds. We typically do not work with lab grown diamonds, as we believe antique diamonds are the most responsible choice for a consumer today. They are usually a century old and cut by hand without the use of modern day tools, making them perfectly imperfect.

Every price reflects the time, care, and craftsmanship that go into creating a piece made just for you.

Difference between CAD and hand carved :

CAD Design
CAD (Computer-Aided Design) uses 3D modeling software to create a highly precise digital rendering of your piece. This method allows us to visualize and adjust details before production, ensuring perfect proportions and symmetry. It’s ideal for designs that require exact measurements, intricate stone settings, or a clean, modern look.

Hand-Carved Jewelry
Hand carving is a fully tactile process where Hannah sculpts your design in wax by hand, using traditional tools. This approach captures organic textures, subtle imperfections, and an artisanal feel that machines can’t replicate. Each hand-carved piece carries a distinct character, making it truly one-of-a-kind.

Both methods result in heirloom-quality jewelry—the choice simply depends on whether you prefer the precision of technology or the artistry of handcraft.
