Luxurious Custom Jewelry Studio Love Saro Opens in Melrose Shopping District

Tell your love story through custom jewelry created at LOVE SARO, a jewelry studio that recently opened in Los Angeles’ Melrose shopping district. Founded by the mystical mother-daughter duo of Carol Ritter and Sacha Jarmon, Love Saro is devoted to designing one-of-a-kind, handmade jewelry with love and purpose. Jarmon, who worked in fashion houses in New York and Paris, likens the process to a custom tattoo experience, but with precious metals and stones. The process begins with setting an intention, which Love Saro’s team helps each client explore through the energy of stones, numerology and symbology. Next, choose your necklace or bracelet from a dazzling array of more than 50 styles of sterling silver and solid 14K yellow gold chains and genuine stones; gem choices range from moonstone and tanzanite to sapphires and diamonds. Jarmon encourages clients to mix metals and include specific stones to enhance energy or provide meaning. Customization is completely open to each person’s unique story. For example, Jarmon recommends couples exchange chain link pieces to symbolize their union Love Saro turns the final step of the process into a ceremonial experience by asking guests to close their eyes and focus on their intention while sacred palo santo is burned. And then, with a flash of the chain welder, the promise is sealed. The Love Saro studio is by appointment only and available for private occasions, such as a bridal shower, wedding or bachelorette party.
