About Us
Launched in 2023,
Lily Frank Jewelry
is designed in Miami, Florida and
made in Austin, Texas.
Following working stints at Carolina Herrera and Marc Jacobs, designer Afsaneh Taki created one of fashion’s new modern luxury beach jewelry brands. Inspired by seaside glamour, Afsaneh envisioned a jewelry line that embodies a fresh take on coastal elegance blended with nostalgic memories from her childhood spent in 1980s Florida.
Each of our pieces radiates elegant coastal opulence and evokes a modern interpretation of beach jewelry. Highlighting natural design, Afsaneh mixes rare, vintage nautilus shells, gemstones, and precious metals with unparalleled craftsmanship. Each piece created encapsulates the beauty of the ocean while offering a sustainable treasure for all clients.
The LFJ Core Collection
The LFJ core collection was created with an eternal and timeless essence in mind. Inspired by visionary jewelry designers Betsy Fuller and Marguerite Stix, we continue on their path and carry on the tradition of marrying the treasures of the sea with the precious metals of the land. The core collection also showcases that luxury jewelry can indeed be eco-friendly and sustainable creating a pathway for future designers to follow. All of our pieces utilize deadstock vintage shells and recycled precious metals.
As we work in tandem and harmony with Mother Nature, we also replenish her. 10% of all proceeds are donated to Gumbo Limbo Nature Center in Boca Raton, Florida and Sea Turtle, Inc in South Padre Island, Texas.
At Lily Frank Jewelry, we invite you to embark on a journey with us upon wearing our pieces . Whether you’re getting married on the edge of a Mexican cenote or relaxing on the serene beaches of the Caribbean, our jewelry is designed to accompany you during your most memorable moments.
We Firmly Believe In
Safe And Sustainable
Business Practices
Our studio is home to a safe community of women, and everyone is paid a fair living wage. Our production team only makes what we need, and no more—at the end of each year our obsolete inventory usually fits in one shoebox. We believe in long life for fashion and want our customers to buy what they love in the hopes they will cherish each design for many years. We actively employ procedures to reduce our carbon footprint, from sourcing all materials locally to packing and shipping orders from our studio where everything is handmade. We do our part to minimize any unnecessary travel at every stage of our production cycle. We use vintage materials wherever possible.
