About Pamela Lauz

Driven by a life-long passion for jewellery, Toronto-based designer Pamela Lauz creates sculptural forms in sterling silver, gold and platinum that exude an elegant, confident style.

Pamela’s designs are distinguished by stylized curves, dramatic angles, and captivating twists. All jewellery features a contrasting high-polish and textured finish to accentuate its striking facets.

Pamela also delights in creating custom-designed jewellery to celebrate important milestones and accomplishments, often incorporating her clients’ own gemstones and other treasures.
