Family at the Heart
01
Ellisse & Co. began with family, memory, and the desire to create something meaningful that can be carried forward.
The name Ellisse carries family at its heart, inspired by Julie’s daughter and by two women whose names became part of hers: Elsa, Julie’s late mother, and Melissa, her mother-in-law.
Julie
Founder, Ellisse & Co.
Julie lost her mother when she was only two years old. Although she never had the chance to truly know her, her mother’s memory remained a guiding presence throughout her life. Julie’s sisters helped raise her with love, strength, and support, shaping the values of family, resilience, and kindness that now sit at the heart of Ellisse & Co.
Today, as a wife and mother of three, Julie understands even more deeply how precious family and meaningful moments can be. Ellisse & Co. is her way of honoring the women who shaped her life while creating thoughtfully curated jewelry that can become part of someone else’s story—worn for everyday moments, given with meaning, and treasured through life’s milestones.
