Simple, Affordable Jewelry for Every Country Girl
New Jersey and Rhode Island-based Noon Design Shop (NOON) was founded in 2009 by friends Nora Alexander and Maie Liis Vaga. The pair graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with degrees in industrial and graphic design and then combined their individual talents to produce their beloved homegrown lifestyle brand.
Since NOON’s inception, Alexander and Vaga have elevated their business from a tiny San Diego garage to a four-store business with an online counterpart.
Today, the design shop is best known for its jewels, all of which are handmade and combine either sterling silver or 14-karat gold fill with semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals, pearls, or sustainable glass.
NOON also sells home goods such as candles, cutting boards, and tea towels, which were recently featured in Food Network Magazine.
Although it can often be challenging to find jewelry that’s both high-quality and affordable, NOON’s jewels manage to meet both of these standards. Each product’s tag also proudly indicates that the item was made in America.
From the mini clam shell studs found while beachcombing Rhode Island shores to Swarovski gems accented by freshwater pearls, NOON has something that every country girl will love.
