Augusta designs makes really cute jewelry that my wife loves. I was in Atlanta visiting friends and dropped in to the small shop in Kirkwood. The owner was there working on her bench and very friendly. The shop is small and elegant, and the jewelry is very affordable. Dog is nice too. Check it out!
Specialties
Jewelry and Accessory designer, Emily Augusta Wimbush began creating jewelry when she was a child. She collected the sea shells and sea glass from the beach near her home in south Florida and used them to create jewelry to give as gifts to her family and friends.
In 1999, she found a way to combine her creative talent with a love of fashion and started her own jewelry line for wedding parties and special events. It wasn't long before people were recognizing her unique style of using an artistic combination of quality materials and detailed graphic patterns to create her one of a kind jewelry. In 2008, Wimbush opened Augusta Designs, a retail jewelry store in Atlanta, that offers a wide range of exceptional custom specialty jewelry at affordable prices.
