The Lucy Luna Journey
Lucy Luna did not arrive fully formed. It was built through instinct, travel, unexpected turns and the decision to keep going when the original plan fell apart.
2024 — The Leap
Hong Kong
With less than two weeks’ notice, I booked a trip to the Hong Kong International Jewellery Fair.
I boarded a nine-hour flight with my 18-month-old daughter, Luna, and my mum beside me. I had no guarantee of what would come from it—only the feeling that I needed to go.
Over five days, I met wholesalers, built international relationships and began learning what it would truly take to bring Lucy Luna to life.
It was the first time the dream felt real.
2024 — The unexpected chapter
Alessia
One month after returning from Hong Kong, I discovered I was pregnant with Alessia.
The news I had hoped for arrived just as Lucy Luna was beginning to take shape.
For a moment, the dream paused—but it did not disappear. It simply began growing beside another one.
2024 — The detour
Turkey
At 12 weeks pregnant, I travelled to Turkey to pursue a manufacturing opportunity that had grown from the relationships I formed in Hong Kong.
I believed it could be the partnership that moved Lucy Luna forward. Instead, it became a lesson in trusting my instincts and refusing to build the brand through an arrangement that did not feel right.
After almost a year of time, conversations and hope, the opportunity fell through.
It was disappointing—but it clarified what I would no longer compromise on.
