Lemondropbeads is a Bay Area based jewelry brand, founded by Camille Shakirova (22) in 2020. The brand seeks to pay homage to what once was as Shakirova creates handmade, wearable jewels that feature vintage kitschy beads, pendants, and pearls. In addition, Shakirova is a silversmith, who makes handmade silver jewelry using recycled silver via the lost-wax casting process. Jewelry by Lemondropbeads is meant to invoke nostalgia, sentimentality, and a sense of longing, while referencing heartening fashion designers.
