Our Story

Built for the people
who find beauty outside.

A jewelry brand rooted in the bluffs, the eagles, and the Mississippi River — made by a founder who always wanted to create her own rules.

10+ years in the industry.
One vision that never went away.

The Found-ry was created by a founder who spent over a decade in the jewelry industry — long enough to understand what makes a piece genuinely worth wearing, and what's just filler.

She grew up in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, then moved to the Rochester, Minnesota area. But it was a deliberate choice — not a default — that brought her to Wabasha in April 2025. She chose this place for what it is: a small river town where bald eagles gather every winter on the Mississippi, the bluffs turn gold in October, and the river is always in the background. That landscape never left her.

After years working within someone else's rules, she decided to build something her own way. The Found-ry is the result: a jewelry brand with an actual point of view, rooted in real places and designed for people who want their pieces to mean something.

Every piece in the Eagle Bluff and Driftless collections is hand-designed — sketched from the landscapes just outside the studio door. The Classics collection is carefully curated: studs, hoops, and diamond pieces chosen with the same eye. Nothing generic. Nothing without intention.
