Melinda Maria, the founder and chief creative officer of Melinda Maria Jewelry, has solidified her status as one of the world’s most successful and influential fashion jewelry designers. Known for her tasteful, versatile, and glamorous designs, Maria has built a 20-year-old brand that combines high-quality synthetic opals and top-tier simulated diamonds to create pieces that look far more luxurious than their price tags suggest. Her winning formula of style and substance has driven the privately owned company to new heights, culminating in the February 2025 opening of its flagship boutique and social club at its Los Angeles headquarters.
A Vibrant Landmark on La Brea Avenue
The company’s headquarters, painted in a striking lavender hue, mirrors the signature color of Melinda Maria’s jewelry pouches, boxes, and tissue paper. The building has become a standout landmark on La Brea Avenue, injecting a sense of joy and vibrancy into the cityscape as Los Angeles continues to recover from the devastating wildfires that swept through Altadena, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu in January 2025.
The bold, colorful design of the headquarters reflects Maria’s unmistakable flair and exuberant personality, as well as her keen eye for design and business savvy. The new flagship store not only serves as a retail space but also doubles as a social club, offering customers a unique experience that blends shopping with community engagement.
With this latest venture, Melinda Maria continues to push boundaries, proving that her brand is as much about innovation and connection as it is about beautiful jewelry. The opening marks a significant milestone for the company, further cementing its place in the fashion world.
