ABOUT JESSICA LIU
the artist
Based in Southern California, Jessica Liu (formerly Petit Anjou) is an independent, artist-driven jewelry studio. Before establishing her studio, Jessica practiced law, but found herself drawn to a more creative, tactile way of working. Inspired by modern art and its embrace of imperfection, she began experimenting with metal—captivated by what could be shaped from raw material.
A self-taught metalsmith, Jessica eventually left her legal career to build her studio. Her designs are guided by a spirit of exploration, spontaneity, and quiet curiosity. Drawn to forms that feel organic and slightly unresolved, her pieces are refined, but never overly so. Much of her inspiration comes from an instinctive pull toward movement, texture, and irregularity, often found in unexpected places. Each piece begins as a hand-sculpted form in wax and is brought to life through the ancient lost wax casting process, one of the oldest techniques in jewelry making.
Since launching her studio in 2021, her work has been worn by figures such as Linda Cardellini for No Good Deed, Charity Lawson for The Bachelorette, and Jessica Alba. Her designs have also been featured in publications including Who What Wear, The Zoe Report, and JCK.
Fewer, Better Things
BRAND VALUES
Jessica Liu is guided by a belief in making fewer things, better. Her work centers on considered design, exceptional materials, and craftsmanship intended to endure. As an independent, artist-driven studio, she maintains a clear point of view—creating with intention rather than in response to trend. Each piece is designed to feel enduring and essential, with a presence that only grows more meaningful over time.
Every design begins with a personal spark--whether it's a memory, feeling, or fleeting moment that stayed with me long enough to become something tangible. But once a piece leaves my hands, the story is no longer only mine.
I believe that art becomes most meaningful through the person who lives with it. The pieces we wear become quiet markers of our lives: reminders of a chapter, a transformation, a version of ourselves. And what one collector sees in a piece may be entirely different from what another sees.
My hope is that these works feel open enough to hold your own memories, interpretations, and meaning over time--becoming not just adornment, but part of your own personal story.
