Shopping for fine jewelry online can be overwhelming, to say the least. This is where Jen Oliak and Ounce of Salt come in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As someone who understands quality,\u00a0I wanted the best,” says Jen. “But even while shopping in the jewelry districts of New York and Los Angeles, it was hard to find. I came to realize that sourcing the very best in jewelry depends on having\u00a0the right relationships. So, using my financial and business audit background, I did my research, shook a lot of hands, and eventually formed the\u00a0network\u00a0that opened doors to discovering\u00a0the very best quality\u00a0in every area; workmanship for custom work, diamond and gemstone suppliers, as well as imported fashion pieces.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noted for sophisticated pieces that are a modern twist on timeless classics, Ounce of Salt offers easy-to-wear styles made of the finest materials, each designed and crafted to last the test of time. Read on for a peek inside the fabulous and inspiring mind of Jen and discover the beauty of Ounce of Salt!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The design you will never forget.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

My Ounce of Salt Jewelry Diamond Butterfly Eternity Band is the design that I\u2019ll never forget. It holds symbolism for me in my own life and reflects my journey to become who I am today. Motto “Let’s Fly”. Women go through a metamorphosis as we pass through different stages of life. The butterfly represents renewal, strength, elegance, and freedom. Speaking to my Butterfly Eternity Band in particular, the ring features a continuous pattern of the highest quality marquis, round and princess cut diamonds, specially cut in Germany. Set in a low profile with just enough metal to keep the diamonds secure, this statement ring is made to be comfortable enough to wear every day. It is a symbol of “becoming”, and its brilliant sparkle does not go unnoticed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
