betsy & iya was founded in 2008 with a notebook & nothing to lose. Among scribbles & coffee stains, “jewelry making” appeared in that notebook. Betsy wrote it down & then she made some jewelry. It worked, so she did it some more. We're now one of Portland's highest rated jewelry shops, offering accessibly priced fashion jewelry ($18 - $149+), wedding & engagement jewelry, and custom designed fine jewelry, all produced by a team of talented makers in the studio attached to our shop. Betsy still designs every piece of jewelry we make. Beyond jewelry, we offer many goods from other artists & small designers: clothing, accessories, more jewelry, cards, home goods, bags, candles, fragrances, ceramics, bath & body products, and other gifts.

But it was when they relocated to Nashville 5 years ago that they began to focus on the power of their signature harmonies.
