founded by longtime friends

Growing up in a small town in Wisconsin, Torrey and Allison became fast friends in 2000. As we've moved across the United States and abroad, we've stayed true to ourselves and one another, through the bond of sisterhood.

We created Longtime Sun because we found that jewelry made of crystals are often big, loud, gold plated costume jewelry that didn't feel right. We sought refined designs, something that could pass as a simple pendant with more meaning. Like a little secret for ourselves.

We spent two years sourcing materials, testing designs, and learning how building trust in our intuition has transformed our lives.

We believe in the power of self-love, and putting trust in yourself and the universe.

We want to see you live authentic, balanced lives that allow you to shine your light! and flow and hold space for the shadow and the light.

Together, we are held by the power of sisterhood and we're happy you're here.
