Meet Stephanie Bates, she's been a jewelry maker and designer for over 15 years, first learning the craft from her sister at an independent jewelry/bead store in Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA. Stephanie, who is a self taught silversmith, spent years creating jewelry for herself, friends and family as a hobby, but decided to turn it into a business (named after her kiddos) in 2020.

Creating jewelry for Stella&Asher Shop is Stephanie's way of empowering and giving women a way to express themselves and their individual style, freely and without judgement.

Our goal here is to make you look and feel good about yourself! We believe that loving yourself is of the utmost importance and our jewelry is going to make your outside, just as beautiful as your inside.
