Our Story

Once Upon A Ring was founded by dreamer, entrepreneur, and lifelong Curvy Queen, Lisa, after her personal and professional experience with luxury jewelry.  When she and her now-husband, Demetre, were searching for that perfect ring, she was unable to try on any of the jewelry, as they did not come in any ready-made sizes that would fit her.  Resorting to trying on her future engagement ring by sliding it halfway down her pinky finger, Lisa then had to wait on a “special order”, size 12 ring that would take nearly three months to arrive. She then spent time working in a jewelry store, and she realized her story was not unique. Watching other Curvy Queens struggle through the same frustration and embarrassment that she had made Lisa realize that something needed to be done, and the industry needed to change. Lisa aspired to create a size-inclusive, luxury jewelry brand where all women could find the perfect fit without the wait or the hassle. Once Upon A Ring was born as the first luxury jewelry brand with ready-made luxury jewelry for Curvy Queens. We specialize in inclusive sizing, ethically-sourced  materials, natural stones, and all around luxury to make your special day sparkle. Together, we will revolutionize the jewelry industry!
