What do desserts and jewelry have in common?
Quite a bit, if you ask Sweet Tooth Designs founder Laurie Chapman. “When I started designing jewelry, I would pick out gemstones that felt like little bits of candy to me – I just craved them,” Chapman says. ‘That’s how the name Sweet Tooth came to me. Picking out a diamond or wearing a little ruby is like picking out that one truffle from the whole box, you can savor it on your tongue. Only difference is my jewelry isn’t edible!”
The Sweet Tooth® lines are a series of playful, whimsical jewelry collections that truly make people happy —Tiramisu, Jolly Rancher, Sorbet, Kiss, Iced Martini and Soda Pop—that launched the brand in 2005.
A graduate of Parsons School of Design, Chapman spent over 16 years as a graphic designer and brand consultant in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles, working with companies such as Visa, Mattel, Palm and Disney, among others. Chapman studied jewelry making, beginning at age 17, culminating with a jewelry metalsmith class that she took when she moved to Los Angeles in 2004.
