Based In Harlem, Beyoncé-Approved, A Brand That’s About To Blow Up

August 31, 2017

Kristin and Kofi Essel are a power couple and the two design creatives behind Third Crown, a jewelry brand that has found fans in BeyoncéSolange, and Cardi B.Third Crown is known for its bold, geometric pieces, crafted exclusively from gold, silver, and gunmetal. A signature component of the pair’s designs is finding unique ways to incorporate linking, which is fitting for a couple that describes themselves as “one entity.”

The way they met sounds straight from a rom-com: “We were both in college, I was at FSU in Florida and Kofi was at FIT.
