Co-founded in 2005 in New York City by Maeve Gillies, MaeVona quickly was recognized as a new force in bridal jewelry with a genuine story and authentic heritage. MaeVona offered women something truly innovative, fresh and exciting in a bridal market filled with products that focused mostly on diamond content; Maeve's designs were all about innovation, practicality, and uniqueness, offering that elusive combination of something modern, but also classic. As the world changed in 2008 and women sought to break away from established trends - expressing their personality while carefully considering budget - MaeVona quickly became one of the hottest young bridal brands in America.
