Our Founder

Hey there Likkle (little) Miss Talawa (ta-la-wah), my name is Thea (ti-a), and I am the owner of Talawa Jewelry. I was born and raised in Jamaica but migrated to America in my teens. Ever since the 11th grade I’ve been wanting to own my own company, years later and Talawa Jewelry is finally here.

 

As a proud Jamaican woman living in a country with so many different cultures and languages, I ensure I never neglect my Jamaican roots; this is why I named my company Talawa Jewelry. The meaning of Talawa resonates strongly with me because I see myself as a strong-willed woman who shouldn’t be underestimated. All women are strong and beautiful in all their own glorious ways and I believe that when we look good we feel good and that's why I started Talawa Jewelry.
