C. Alexandra is a bespoke  jewelry designer based in Los Angeles, who began as a classically trained oil painter and photographer.  Her fascination for jewelry was sparked in 2009 when she began working for the highly decorated Swiss jeweller, Gilbert Albert in his Flagship store on 5th Ave, NYC.  She became obsessed with his use of obscure materials like volcanic rock and his vast array of exquisite gold work.  

Claire relocated to Los Angeles in 2017, discovering her passion for the artisanal process of creating fine jewelry. Having years of experience in design and working in high end boutiques, she decided it was time to carve out her own path in the industry. C. Alexandra began by sourcing gemstones as an eager apprentice to a master jeweler at his bench, learning how to inspire and guide the unique desires and creativity of her clients.  Utilizing only the finest raw materials with the belief that jewelry should weigh enough to be felt by its wearer,  she began to garner a following of her own. Themes of architecture and nature reverberate through her works which showcase a strong emphasis on precision of line and form. The mission of designer C. Alexandra is to create not only beautiful jewelry but to create heirlooms that will hold significant meaning, iconic yet always enduring the test of time.
