Jewelry with Soul,
Crafted by Hand
FROM BIRTHSTONES TO LAMPWORK GLASS AND GEMSTONES--- EVERY PIECE TELLS A STORY WORTH WEARING.
dana A Designs was born from a love of materials that hold meaning—birthstones, lampwork glass, and natural stones. Each piece of jewelry is made by hand in small batches, blending craft with care. Our designs are inspired by nature, emotion, and the beauty of personal milestones. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, marking a memory, or simply drawn to the color of your birth month, you'll find something here that speaks to your story.
Stones Born From Fire.
Made By Hand.
Our Founder, Dana A, is a self-taught artist creating handmade birthstone jewelry using kiln-formed glass and hand-selected stones.
Each piece is crafted in small batches from my studio. I believe jewelry should be personal. That’s why I create one-of-a-kind earrings, necklaces, and bracelets—each celebrating a birthstone, a memory, or a story.
No factories. No shortcuts. Just glass, stone, and soul.
From Our Maker
When I was a little girl, coloring with crayons and magic markers was one of my favorite hobbies. The brightest and most saturated hues were always the first to jump out at me. The inspiration I got from all of the colors made me feel so happy. Even into my adulthood, I find myself drawn to brilliant colors. My wardrobe defies all seasonal rules of dressing, and my home is my colorful paradise. One can almost always catch me in vibrant, citrus colors, even in the frigid month of January.
When it comes to choosing the glasswork I want for my jewelry, I look to nature for inspiration. Red-hot volcano lava, Caribbean blue waters, and African animal prints release my desire to create something beautiful. Sometimes the inspiration is right in front of me like the inside of a juicy lime or the beautiful hot pink color of a New Guinea Impatiens flower growing in my deck planter. Mix them all together and something wonderfully zany happens. Color is instinctive, emotional, and spontaneous.
Let color make your world a happier place.
Dana A
