Provide a brief description of your company and the products?
Michele Baratta’s celebrity coveted jewelry is not just made by hand; it’s made with heart… Her charms etched with symbolic images, inscribed with words and phrases, are deeply personal expressions of her life.
Much of Michele’s jewelry designs are meant to hold a cherished photo; portraits that reinterpret memory, fleeting images of loved ones, suggestions of family and the passage of generations.
Each piece of jewelry has a story, which brings it to life. It’s not just beautiful jewelry… it’s meaningful and has personality. Because Michele sculpts her designs by hand you will often see a partial imprint of her fingerprint. Her signature jewelry has a true artisan look and is never meant to be perfect… much like life.
Michele Baratta atHome is unique in the home party world. Unlike other jewelry companies we don’t purchase our jewelry from different vendors in other countries and then resell it. Our jewelry is “MADE IN AMERICA” Michele actually designs every piece. So, you will never see it being sold anywhere else.

Each piece has a STORY and meaning behind it. I truly enjoy reading the catalog to see what inspired Michele’s design on each piece.
I was lucky enough to meet Michele and Andy last month. They are generous, fun and real. I’m proud to work with this growing family.

My favorite piece is the Portrait of Love Necklace. I love being able to hold my children close to my heart. They feel treasured when they see me wearing their picture proudly.
