About Double Happiness

Double Happiness was started in august 2001 by Stephanie Wells and her sister, Alisa Rottenberg.

The literal meaning of “double happiness” is marriage in Chinese culture. In our world, it’s a type of karmic chain reaction. It also represents the two sisters who started the line.

All Double Happiness jewelry pieces are designed by Stephanie Wells and manufactured by hand in her southern California studio. Inspired by her travels abroad, aesthetics from past time periods, her daily life, etc… every season she finds new inspirations for her line. Although the inspiration and collections change, her style and technique remain distinctly her own.

Double Happiness’s PR office comes out of New York City. It is here that the company stays on target with trend reports, editorial needs, and the New York fashion scene. What began with a pair of sisters working out of a garage has grown into a wonderful studio/office with a magnificent team of women as unique and well-crafted as the jewelry they make.

Through beautiful aesthetics combined with the insider’s knowledge to the fashion industry, double happiness continues to grow and evolve as an important player in today’s design world.
