Since opening their doors in 2001, Julie Baker Design has become a fan (and celebrity) favorite for elegant, whimsical fine jewelry. Having been sold in prominent stores (such as Bergdorf Goodman, Barney’s, and Saks), and featured in over 500 editorial spreads (in publications such as Vogue, Elle, Town and Country, W, and In-Style), her signature taste and eye for design is undeniable.

Re-launching in 2022 as SAPPHIRE by Julie Baker, the prolific designer maintains her signature DNA while bringing in movement, color, and shape, and focusing her designs of rare briolette cut sapphires paired with 14k gold.

Dating back centuries, Keshi pearls have long been treasured for their organic formation and luminous, iridescent surface. Unlike traditional pearls, Keshi are formed without a nucleus, resulting in uniquely shaped, free-form pearls that catch the light in unexpected ways. Their natural irregularity allows for both versatility and artistry in fine jewelry design, making each piece truly distinctive.

In her Fleur De Pearl collection, Julie uses rare Keshi Pearls which are celebrated for their organic shapes and luminous, iridescent surfaces, making the combination of her work both visually captivating and inherently unique. While Keshi Pearls themselves are highly prized for their natural formation, their presence in fine jewelry remains an uncommon treasure, adding to the rarity and elegance of each piece.

The results of her work are radiant Keshi Pearls paired with sweeping, delicately shaped 14k gold that moves with the wearer, adds a touch of effortless luxury to any outfit, and becomes an instant everyday staple.
