We think life should be a little wild, endlessly beautiful, and effortlessly free. The name Essenshell is a nod to what we’re all about: essential pieces you’ll live in, inspired by the ocean, and created by Shelly, our designer, founder, and artisan.
We source natural materials to make timeless designs that last a nighttime, a summertime, and a lifetime. Whether you’re soaking up the sun, chasing waves, or wandering far from the shore,
Essenshell jewelry is made to move with you—sweat, swim, sun, and all.
Rooted in family, inspired by the ocean, and driven by the simple joy of sharing creativity, Essenshell is more than a brand; it’s a lifestyle.
Our pieces are for those who crave a little escapism—those who want to carry the spirit of summer wherever they go.
Essenshell was born out of a deep love for the beach and a passion for storytelling through natural gemstones and metals. For Shelly, this journey started in her childhood, during a year spent in Guarapari, Brazil. At just 13, she would pass by the gleaming windows of an H. Stern jewelry shop every day, mesmerized by the raw beauty of aquamarine, amethyst, and tourmaline. Those moments sparked a lifelong love for the hidden treasures of the earth—stones that have waited for centuries to be unearthed, polished, and cherished.
Faith is at the heart of what we do. To us, these natural gems are more than just beautiful—they’re tiny reminders of the wonder of creation, hand-designed by God for us to find and enjoy. It’s humbling to think that something forged deep within the earth can now live on as part of your story.

Join us on this journey, whether you’re layering up for a night out, designing bespoke forever jewelry at a pop-up, or just looking to bring a little salty sun-kissed magic to every day.
