About

Intimate, original, eternal. Introducing Laurel & Bleau, a collection designed with you in mind. Founded by Lori Gilman, Laurel & Bleau is a line of exclusive jewelry set to make a lasting impression.

Laurel & Bleau was named after two hotels owned by Gilman's family in the 50's and 60's, one being the famous Fountain Bleau in Miami. Like Laurel & Bleau’s name, each piece of jewelry tells a meaningful story. Your Story. "Everyone has a journey or story they tell through names, photos and of course jewelry. The jewelry you wear is the world’s first look into who you are and what you are about.”

Allowing clients to collaborate on the design process is what truly sets Laurel & Bleau apart from other jewelry companies. When purchasing a piece from any of the collections, you become the designer. Choosing everything from chain length, to color and engravings gives buyers an intimate, one-of-a-kind experience. "Designing a piece of jewelry that you are able to layer with what you own and love already is what Laurel & Bleau is all about.”
