Robindira Unsworth, a Northern California dreamer and designer, creates exotic handmade jewelry at her studio in Petaluma, California.

Her work exudes an other-worldly beauty, with each one-of-a-kind treasure telling a unique story.

Although drawn to design at an early age, Robindira chose to work in social services for many years before pursuing her desire to create.

Working with diverse populations such as AIDS dementia patients and adults with developmental disabilities, she learned to truly appreciate the strength and beauty of the human spirit and the amazing resiliency of the people around her.

Her journey eventually led her back to design, and she describes this time as a very unexpected gift that has had a profound effect on her life.

Working with a variety of materials, Robindira’s designs are meant to make women feel beautiful and powerful.

Featuring luscious and luminous opals glowing within halos of diamonds and darkened silver…

…each piece is lovingly handcrafted, honoring the individual beauty of every stone.
