Lizzie Fortunato launched in 2008 from a small Lower East Side apartment, born out of Lizzie’s passion for jewelry design that began during her time at Duke University. With her twin sister Kathryn’s support, the brand grew from a single investment into a thriving business. Today, the NYC-based team of 14 continues to design and assemble many of their pieces locally, using globally sourced materials. The brand remains committed to craftsmanship, integrity, and thoughtful growth.
