When browsing through the Rach B Jewelry collection, it is evident that designer Rachel Bommer has an eye for design and passion for amazing jewelry. From chic statement necklaces to eye-catching earrings, Rach B Jewelry has it all.
There is something magical about talking to someone who loves what they do and finds beauty all around them. I am happy to share my interview with the classy and talented Rach B with you.
What got you started as a jewelry designer?
I am a fashion design graduate. I was always attracted to making/ designing things as a child. As much as I loved designing clothes, I enjoyed jewelry making more because of the instant gratification aspect. I started making simple jewelry at the age of four. In grade school, I would sell my creations in the lunchroom. By high school, I was selling jewelry in local salons and in my high school’s office. Although it makes me cringe now, I still can’t believe what a little entrepreneur I was at a young age.
If you had to define Rach B Jewelry in one sentence, what would it be?
Rach B Jewelry fuses timeless, high-end looks that can be worn with a white tank top or little black dress–at accessible prices.
What do you enjoy most about designing jewelry?
I enjoy that the second I get a vision or idea, I am able to make it right away. Very gratifying.
Where do you find inspiration when creating new pieces?
I would go crazy if I didn’t set limits for each collection I design. I first figure out which handful of stones I am using. From there, the stones and chains inspire me just by playing around with ideas and proportions.
Which Rach B item do you find yourself wearing again and again?
I wear my multi-stone earrings (seen here) ALL the time with a tank top or little black dress. For the past 3 1/2 years, and currently on the 7th collection, I have designed the same multi-stone earrings, simply incorporating the new color or stone for the new season. They are my best sellers, too. Irresistible, I’d say.
Could you offer a few tips on wearing jewelry?
Don’t wear it all at once! If you wear large earrings, go for a bracelet. Wearing a big necklace ? Go with studs. Keep it at one statement piece that complements your outfit best.
