Our team
Simon
Simon has been designing jewelry since the early 1980s, when he taught himself to cast gold and set stones. He draws inspiration for his design from nature, and from his frequent around-the-world trips to buy gems and metals. Simon’s strength as a designer is his ability to understand people and bring to life their heart’s desire.
Elizabeth
Elizabeth is the guiding force behind Vinca’s customer experience. A hostess and caretaker at heart, she has a love of adventure and connection, qualities that serve her well when helping customers select a piece that gives a voice to an underlying emotion or sentiment.
Tu
As Vinca’s first employee, Tu has been instrumental in developing Vinca’s personal approach to working with its customers. As the backbone of the store, Tu is deeply knowledgable about gemstones and the jewelry making process. Her knack for remembering names and preferences is only rivalled by her running knowledge of Vinca’s extensive inventory.
