Rebecca Lankford

Rebecca Lankford started designing about fifteen years ago at her kitchen table making jewelry for herself and friends as a hobby. While working as a paralegal, she decided to enroll at the Glassell School of Art to study photography, but gravitated back to jewelry and eventually graduated in Jewelry Design and Technique. Rebecca Lankford Designs opened officially in 1993 when a local art gallery picked up the line after seeing it on one of Rebecca’s friends. 

Rebecca attributes her creative passion to her mom. “I grew up with a mom that was extremely creative, she made everything, she was a fantastic gardener, she made patterns to make beautiful clothes, and she even crocheted a bikini for me once.” Rebecca’s Catholic upbringing and her Christian faith are both strong influences in the line. “People ask me about the symbolism in the jewelry, I tell them it’s simple, I love crosses and I love what they stand for.” Rebecca’s Jewelry designs range from bohemian to sophisticated and are constantly evolving through different experiences. “I love what I do, I am inspired constantly, when someone tells me ‘my wife looks beautiful in your earrings’ or ‘your necklace made me feel special at my wedding’, I am moved to design.” We love Rebecca Lankford designs layered and layered!
