Wolf Circus

With a heavy emphasis on bold, unique and unisex design, Wolf Circus is an ultra-cool Vancouver-based jewellery line that doesn’t follow trends — they set them.

Founded in 2010 by Fiona Morrison, I particularly like this brand because of its wide selection of silver jewellery that not many brands offer.

Another plus: they’re made out of high-grade recycled materials and handcrafted in Vancouver.

Omi Woods

Elegant and timeless with a vintage look, Omi Woods offers gorgeous jewellery that is meant to become family heirlooms, passed down to future generations to cherish.

Ashley Alexis McFarlane, the Toronto-based founder, designs and creates her pieces as symbols representative of Africa and its diaspora.

Beautiful not only in look but also in make, these pieces are handmade with ethically sourced African gold and recycled and conflict-free fine metals and gemstones.

Sapling & Flint

Elegant and powerful, Sapling & Flint specializes in gold and sterling silver jewellery that are meant to be "conversation pieces that share the story of Turtle Island." This Indigenous jewellery brand is truly one-of-a-kind.

Based in Ohswé:ken, Six Nations of the Grand River Territory, Sapling & Flint was created by Mohawk Nation twin sisters, Teyotsihstokwáthe Dakota Brant & Yonenyà:kenht Jesse Brant in 2017.

Another amazing reason to support this brand is that an annual portion of their profits go to Six Nations community revitalization projects including, Haudenosaunee language immersion programs, supporting youth to attend world-class Lacrosse tournaments, longhouse building projects, the North American Indigenous Games, and cultural programs.

Leah Alexandra

Like me, you may have been introduced to this Canadian jewellery brand through their viral Spark Studio welded permanent bracelets and might already proudly own one.

Leah Alexandra has originated and popularized this ingenious marketing technique and it truly has captivated the Canadian jewellery market.

Personally, I’m obsessed with the idea of permanent jewellery as it feels not only like a collectable but also an accomplishment as I continue to add more to my stack.

With two stores in Vancouver, a recently opened store in the Shangri-La in Toronto, and frequent pop-ups around the country, Leah Alexandra offers many opportunities for you and your loved ones to get Sparked.

If permanent jewellery isn’t your thing, don’t worry! All their jewellery can be bought clasped (so you can easily take it on and off), and purchased online through their website.

Enarmoured

Enamoured creates wearable art that is bold, lightweight and visually galvanizing.

Handcrafted in Toronto by artist Jordan Clarke, Enamoured releases their pieces through curated collections such as ARMOUR, inspired by ancient armour and FORM, inspired by water, movement and the female figure.

Jenny Bird

Preppy, fun and bold, offers trend-setting statement pieces that kick your look up a notch.

Based out of Toronto, Jenny Bird’s eponymous brand started creating jewellery in 2010 and has been one of Canada’s fastest-growing companies for its keen ability to observe culture and intuit trends, delivering pieces that become instant classics.

This brand is also beloved by celebrities and can be often seen elevating the outfits of Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber.

hart & stone

With organic, minimalistic and geometric designs, hart & stone reflects the quiet, simple beauty of nature.

Founded by Emily Hartwell Reynolds, each piece is handmade on Salt Spring Island off the west coast of Canada and is crafted with sterling silver, gold-filled and 14k gold.

Whether you’re looking for the perfect last minute gift or you simply want to treat yourself in 2024, these Canadian made jewellery brands are perfect.
