Our Founder

Susan May

When I was young, I looked forward to the gifts my grandma gave me each Christmas. I didn’t realize it at the time, but she was sharing a legacy of memories with each piece of jewelry. One of those gifts was a ring with a tiny cherub angle. To this day, whenever I wear that beautiful ring, I think of my grandmother and our Christmases together.

Now, I’m a mom with a passion for capturing beautiful memories with my own daughter. As I pass on our family jewelry she collects her own pieces, my hope is for her to organize, protect and enjoy her jewelry for years to come.

Our Inspiration

Timeless Traditions

I founded One Modern May because I believe the jewelry we have represents the people and experiences which make life special. Whether it comes from a great grandmother or is a little piece you fell in love with at a craft fair, keeping it organized and protected enables you to enjoy it to its' fullest.
