We’re thrilled to share that Constance Polamalu, designer of Birthright Foundry and COO of Zachary’s Jewelers, has been featured in JCK Magazine, the jewelry industry’s leading publication. The article, “Pearls, Reimagined,” spotlights Constance’s fresh take on one of jewelry’s most timeless treasures — the pearl.
In the feature, Constance shares how today’s generation is breathing new life into pearls, blending modern styling, cultural inspiration, and individuality. From the return of the Tin Cup necklace to creative layering trends, she highlights how pearls are once again becoming a must-have piece for both men and women.
A New Chapter for Pearls
Gone are the days when pearls were reserved for special occasions or formal wear. As Constance explains, today’s jewelry lovers are embracing pearls as part of their everyday look — pairing them with denim, gold chains, and layered necklaces to express personal style.

Modern Elegance Meets Heritage

Leading the Pearl Revival
As styles evolve, one thing remains constant: pearls never go out of fashion — they simply transform. With Constance’s insight and Zachary’s craftsmanship, we’re proud to be part of this modern pearl movement that bridges tradition and innovation.
