This Is Me.

Hi, I'm Stacey
▾▼▾▼▾▼▾▼▾
I found my path leading me somewhere between adventure and art — in that blur of color and chaos that never sits still - not unlike my mind. That’s where Mad Era was born.
Truth? I lost my spark for a bit.
I got caught up in doing what I thought I should be doing instead of what I actually wanted. So I took a breath, and decided to start again — this time louder, messier, and a hell of a lot more me.
Mad Era is a refresh — a rebellion against burnout and a love letter to creative women who’ve been told they’re “too much,” and took it as a compliment.

It’s for anyone brave enough to change direction when something no longer feels right.
If you’re here, you already get it.

Welcome to the Mad Era.

All of the items you see on the site are designed by me or in collaboration with other artists. We create handcrafted accessories that, unlike mass-produced products, tell a unique story and starts conversations about art, expression, and personal style.

Jewelry is Self Expression

You’re not here to blend in — you’re here to be seen.
You crave color, crave movement, crave meaning.
You value curiosity over comfort and growth over perfection.
If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

Power Tools & Pretty Things
Yeah, I’ve got a thing for wood.

It started with home renovations — one project turned into two houses: a stone beauty on a Croatian island and a scrappy fixer-upper in Philly. Somewhere between sanding trim and laying floors, I fell for the material — its grit, its grain, its stories.
But somewhere along the way, the fun faded. Everything got a little too polished.
So I pivoted - I will still have my line of Olive Wood jewelry - which will be called the Roots Collection going forward, it's where I got my start and deserves to be honored, like every step on a journey.

I will still be working with wood — just louder. Less “fine design,” more “let’s 80s dance ‘til we drop.”
I want to make jewelry and accessories that make me feel alive again — bold, colorful, imperfect, and unapologetically fun.

Sawdust, meet sparkle.

Make a Statement. Make a Difference.

I’m not just about crafting bold accessories; I also want to support and build a community I love.

A portion of Mad ♢ Era profits will go to William Way Community Center in Philadelphia, supporting LGBTQ+ artists, cultural equity, and diverse queer expression.

Because art doesn’t exist in a vacuum — it’s how we connect, resist, and rise.

Want to be part of the give-back? Easy — just shop small and wear it loud.

Wear Art. Make Noise.

Jewelry isn’t just an accessory — it’s a megaphone for your personality. It says this is me without you having to explain a damn thing.

At Mad ♢ Era Design Studio, we’re not just making earrings — we’re creating tiny, wearable pieces of art that reflect your spirit, your story, and your sense of adventure.

The studio (yep, that’s it pictured here) is our playground — and we’re just getting started. We design from the gut — inspired by the places we’ve been, the things we love, and the bold souls who wear our work.

As we follow our heads, hearts, and creative hunches, the collections will keep evolving.

Hope you’ll stick around for the ride.
