Will you be far away from your partner on your anniversary? Looking for ways to close the distance emotionally, even if you can’t physically? If so, Love&Crafted can help. A one-of-a-kind, family-owned small business with a heart, Love&Crafted makes jewelry to help couples reaffirm their connection despite the long distance.
Co-founders Veronika Antipenko and Luka Vukoslavovic know what it’s like to be apart because they were in this situation themselves. “We were in a long-distance relationship for three years,” Antipenko says. “It takes a lot to feel connected and be present for your loved one when you’re so far away. You can’t hug, kiss, or look into their eyes, so it’s hard to reassure each other that everything will be fine.”
Vukoslavovic and Antipenko — now husband and wife — founded Love&Crafted to address this need. “We can’t emphasize enough the importance of showing your love, especially when you’re not physically together with your significant other or other beloved ones,” Vukoslavovic says. “We want to help people love, be loved, and feel loved. That’s why we decided to create Love&Crafted.”
Love&Crafted offers a line of jewelry to help people express their feelings to those they care for most. Perfect for anniversary gifts, the company’s rings and necklaces are sure to surprise and delight.
Express the inexpressible
At times when it’s difficult to find the right words to express how you feel, Love&Crafted rings and necklaces can communicate for you. “Love&Crafted jewelry is personal and intimate,” Antipenko explains. “It communicates a deeper meaning that might be hard to put into words. We say we ‘add a pinch of love’ to every piece.”
A card with a moving message that is appropriate for the specific design accompanies each item. For instance, the Spark Between Us Ring features a lightning bolt that wraps around the finger. Its card reads, “There’s a spark between us I’ve never felt with anyone else. Wear this ring as a reminder that I’ll always be there for you.”
As one reviewer wrote, “My girl got emotional when I gave her this ring. She doesn’t take it off.” According to another, “This card made my girlfriend cry!!! It’s beautiful.”
Many Love&Crafted rings are fully adjustable and can fit any size finger.
Pendants come in a variety of designs, including a couple embracing and a butterfly, which the website explains is “a symbol of life, change, beauty, and freedom.” One necklace can be worn two different ways, either as a cluster that looks like a four-leaf clover or as a string of four hearts. Another, called the Guardian Angel Necklace, opens wings studded with blue crystals to reveal a silver heart between them.
Unique jewelry for unique connections
Love inspires all the company’s designs to help cultivate feelings of closeness. For instance, one ring features a knot which, according to the card that comes with it, “symbolizes the knot that ties us together. Wear it as a reminder that nothing in this world can separate us.”
Another ring wraps arms around the finger in a hug. It comes with a card that says, “Here’s a hug from me to you to show I care, to see you through. Just hold me tight and keep me near, a hug to show I’m always here.”
The website also has a fine jewelry section with spectacular rings that look like engagement rings at a high-end jewelry store, but none of the prices go over $110. Whether your girlfriend would prefer a simple solitaire or a massive rock surrounded by sparkle, Love&Crafted has your back. One design even sports an emerald-cut stone, a dramatic rectangle.
Each piece is handmade, and the company uses only high-quality materials — usually sterling silver or 18k gold plating with crystals. And because all of their items are hypoallergenic, they can be gifted to anyone with confidence.
Anniversary gifts that are sure to please
Even those who aren’t far away from their partners would benefit from Love&Crafted jewelry.
If your anniversary is coming up, visit the Love&Crafted website. Since every piece is a winner, your gift is sure to please. As one reviewer wrote on the Destinée Ring, she “received this ring as a gift from my partner for our 10-year anniversary. I was so happy, I couldn’t stop crying!”
Let her know how much you care. Give her a piece of Love&Crafted jewelry for your anniversary.
