The Designers
La Isla Jewelry, launched in 2007 by Helen Schultes and Jay Shrake, a husband and wife team, is located out of Del Mar, California. Living near the ocean along with frequent visits to their favorite vacation spots in Hawaii, has been the inspiration for their tropical jewelry. La Isla is exotic and elegant. The designs have a minimalist simplicity with clean lines and understated femininity. Their style is contemporary, sophisticated, and strikingly fashionable.
Each piece of La Isla jewelry is handmade in their studio in Southern California. They work with silver, gold, bronze, brass, and copper, incorporating cultured pearls, shells, semi-precious stones, as well as murano glass and ceramics. Each piece is one of a kind or part of a limited collection.
