Jamie Books

Founder

A native New Yorker, Jamie Books is an accessories

industry vet whose career spans 15 years designing

luxury accessories. Books began her career in fine

jewelry—studying at the Camberwell College of the

Arts and later pivoted to include handbags and

small leather goods.

However, her relationship with jewelry began as far

back as the designer can remember: jewelry has always

been an outlet for creativity as well as a way for Books

to assert her own independence. Throughout her life

jewelry has been something that she has always turned

to to catapult her into the next chapter.

Naming her brand Mason and Books was a tribute to

her muses and cheerleaders— her children. ”Mason” is

her daughter’s middle name, and her son’s initials are

MB. Books hopes that one day M&B will be something

they can grow together. (However, no pressure.)

In 2021, Books debuted her line, inspired by her

family, color, and the rollercoaster ride of life. The

Mason and Books design philosophy is to dream up

unconventional ways to interpret common concepts.

Incorporating unique color combinations of cut

and sourced gemstones, with 360-degree design.

Every creation is crafted entirely by hand by master

jewelers at our dedicated workshop in New York City.

Books takes pride in personally overseeing each step in

the creation process with meticulous care. Beginning

with her own hand sketches and bespoke wax

models. Books champions domestic manufacturing

and supports USA craftsmen who have taught her so

much.

The resulting jewelry creations are fun and accessible

yet command attention for their sophisticated

originality.

Jamie lives in Manhattan with her daughter Berkeley and son Miller.
