Although known and recognized for her industrial and streamlined look, Marla Aaron’s roots are deeply set in both Victorian and Georgian era jewelry and her influence spans far and wide with its aesthetic, incorporating many different elements to create a line of jewelry with a voice all its own. Marla’s pieces are infused with gemstones like emerald, malachite and tsavorite, and mix metals flawlessly. The locks were Marla’s original concept for the collection as she realized she could morph carabiners of any size into a myriad of shapes to pair with vintage-inspired chains. Thus, Marla is infamous for her collection of locks, like the droplock and babylock, and can be paired with any various chains for both bracelets and necklaces alike.

Marla Aaron’s rebellious approach to jewelry led to their momentous installation at the Brooklyn Museum in 2017. They created a first of its kind jewelry vending machine for display which was also featured in New York City’s Museum of Finance. And in 2024 Marla was awarded the Gem Award for Jewelry Design by the Jewelers of North America. The brand provides single moms with free sterling silver heartlocks for them to keep forever. Marla’s accolades speak to the transcendent power of her designs and the impact her jewelry has had across the world.
