About Us
Welcome to Mary Frances Maker

WHO WE ARE
Mary Frances Maker is a luxury accessories brand with a curiosity for the unique and a passion for storytelling. We're on a mission to build connections and create beautiful jewelry, accessories, and other pieces that tell your stories.We cast found objects from nature like turtle shells and birch bark found along the Appalachian as well as create pieces inspired by honeycombs and rosemary.
We cast into brass, silver, and gold, using diamonds to further celebrate the natural world with a blend of timeless and experimental styles. We first create each jewelry piece by hand, adding a unique touch you won't find anywhere else.OUR DESIGN PROCESS
All of our jewelry is first created out of wax or organic material in our Charleston, SC studio by designer, Mary Frances Maker. The designs are then re-created for final production on a larger-scale by a family-run casting house in New York. We have worked with this casting house for years, know the employees personally, and can attest to their quality and ethics. Our jewelry uses solid brass, solid sterling silver, and solid 14k gold. We have more info here about the different elements and how they relate to the jewelry here.
Our hope is that by creating beautiful jewelry and gifts, we can evoke the feelings from a perfect engagement, birthday, anniversary, or any other moment that make MFM accessories so unique.
CUSTOM WORK
Through our custom design work, we bring your ideas to life and dusty family heirlooms are repurposed, reborn, and reloved for future generations. We're sentimentalists; we love nothing more than a good story. We believe every piece has a story to tell - let our pieces help you tell yours. Learn more about our custom pieces here.
OUR COMMUNITY & COMMITMENT TO YOUR STORIES
We want you to feel absolutely beautiful and confident each time you put on your MFM piece. You are the driving force behind every design and every detail. As such, we hope you feel you are working with a friend, someone you can be open and vulnerable with, in the pursuit of a piece of jewelry that really speaks to you.
