Have you noticed our logo with a unique character? Yes, it is an underscore however we see this as a cursor.
For those that do not know, a blinking cursor is a visual indicator in a computer interface that shows where the next character will be inserted when you start typing. It alternates between being visible and invisible, giving the user a visual cue about where their next character, letter, or number will appear.
Our cursor is to honor our long history in personalized jewelry, but most importantly a tribute to you and your story told through the pieces you wear everyday!

A monya piece is the culmination of a century’s worth of knowledge in personalization and classic jewelry design. Every ring, necklace, bracelet, pendant, and earring is custom-made-to-order, polished, and packaged in our Chicago studio by a small team of dedicated artisans. In the spirit of everything old is new again we use recycled silver or gold, as well as conflict free stones to minimize environmental effects.
