Welcome to Lumen, a space shaped by coastal light, local artistry, and thoughtful design. We’re a gallery rooted in Capitola Village, offering handcrafted jewelry, home goods, and works by regional makers we believe in. Every piece here is carefully chosen for its story, its feel, and how it fits into a life well-lived.

We work closely with local and regional makers who bring care and intention to every object they create.

Whether it’s a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry, a perfectly imperfect mug, or a print that brings the coast indoors, our collection is rooted in quality, character, and a deep appreciation for artistry.

The Signature Collection

Cierra Designs is our in-house jewelry line, crafted by hand in Santa Cruz. Designed by our founder, each piece reflects a sense of place, intention, and everyday wearability.
