Our Story
Hello, dear one-
Alkemie Jewelry is more than a collection; it’s the story of our love, family, and creativity woven into every piece we make. As a husband-and-wife duo, we’ve spent the past two decades not just building a business but crafting a life—raising our family while designing jewelry that reflects our shared passions.
From treasure hunting at flea markets to wandering wild landscapes and traveling far and wide, we are endlessly inspired by the beauty around us. Our designs pay tribute to Mother Earth, rock & roll, and vintage aesthetics—blending organic elements with a rebellious edge.
Before we co-created Alkemie, I had my own collection of jewelry—called dara. The line was carried by Barneys New York, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and top boutiques across Japan and the U.S. Ashley, too, was immersed in the world of jewelry—his collection- Ilana Goor, embodied a rock & roll spirit, featuring hand-cast sculptural designs and leather elements that landed in some of the coolest boutiques across the country
For years, we showcased our collections exclusively at trade shows—until one night after a wholesale tradeshow in NYC, i woke ash up from a dream i had of a having a mobile shop that would take our artistry beyond the traditional showroom. Four years (and a lot of repurposed materials) later, Alkemie Road was born.Our sacred traveling oasis has graced the Malibu Pier for many moons and now once again calls Topanga Canyon home, where it was originally built.
Inside Alkemie Road, you’ll find our entire collection alongside curated vintage treasures, sacred objects, curiosities, and some of my favorite organic beauty brands or third eye enhancing potions. Like everything we do, our shoppe runs on intuition and flow—we open when the moment feels right, embracing the magic of serendipity.
At its heart, Alkemie Jewelry is a labor of love—a reflection of our journey as artists, partners, and parents. Every piece we create carries our story, and we hope it becomes part of yours.
With love,
Dara & Ashley
How the Magic Happens
Our Process
Handcrafted in LA
Old-world craftsmanship, modern spirit. Each Alkemie piece is hand-carved and cast in Los Angeles, using time-honored techniques to create jewelry that carries the soul of the maker in every detail.
Reclaimed & Reverent
We honor the Earth by working exclusively with 100% reclaimed metals. Sustainability has been at the heart of our process from day one—an ethical choice made with reverence for people and planet.
Rooted in Spirit
Every design begins with intention, inspired by nature, music, and the stories gathered on our travels. More than jewelry, each piece is a soulful expression of connection and meaning.
