About ESME

ESME is created by jewellery designer Carla Schläger

ESME wishes to redefine how we see jewelry — from static accessories to living expressions of individuality.
I design handcrafted, made-to-order pieces in sterling silver, with a focus on reversible designs that allow you to shift effortlessly between expressions and moods — from day to night, casual to refined — without compromising on quality, longevity, or personal style.

ESME is about showing who you are — not who you’re supposed to be.
Each piece invites play, transformation, and the freedom to express yourself — through mood, moment, or personal evolution.

Reversible Jewellery

Growing up, I — like many others — bought a lot of jewelry. Most of it was inexpensive, trend-driven, and only felt right for a short time. After a few wears, it would end up forgotten in the back of a drawer, or eventually discarded as styles changed.

I began questioning this cycle. We buy too often, yet wear too little — even though jewelry has the potential to last far longer than the trends we attach to it.

This reflection led me to reversible jewelry.
What if one piece could offer more than one expression?
What if jewelry could adapt — to mood, moment, and style — instead of being replaced?

By investing in quality and versatility, one piece can replace many.
Reversible jewelry allows us to wear what we own for longer, more intuitively, and more meaningfully — without needing something new for every change in occasion or feeling.

Mission

ESME creates reversible, made-to-order fine jewelry in precious metals — designed to adapt to the many expressions of the individual. Each piece is crafted to be long-lasting, intuitive to wear, and a meaningful extension of personal identity rather than a seasonal accessory.

Vision

ESME wants to redefine what jewelry can be — not as something static, but as something alive. ESME envisions a world where jewelry evolves with its wearer, celebrating individuality, duality, and the freedom to exist beyond a single expression.
