The Gem and I is a small, one-woman business, run and operated by Jillian in West Texas. It was founded in 2018 with the aim of creating unique and authentic jewelry pieces for crystal-loving babes. Jillian has had a passion for gemstones throughout her entire life. However, she decided to turn her hobby of jewelry making into a business after experiencing the remarkable benefits of wearing mala necklaces. The Gem and I is dedicated to creating authentic, enjoyable, and highly wearable jewelry to help others experience the extraordinary properties of crystals in their daily lives.
