When I launched Mamaleh, it was with the Yidderish collection—a line of necklaces designed with iconic Yiddish words—because I'd wanted to offer a different way to express Jewish identity beyond a Star of David. After all, I only have about a dozen Jewish stars on chains I haven't worn in a thousand years. On more reflection, it wasn't just that I'd had plenty of Star of Davids tucked in a jewelry box already, but they weren't really my vibe anymore. So why not design something that I did want to wear? Presenting, Mamaleh's new Jewish star jewelry collection.
1. The Jewish Star Rainbow Necklace
There is no one way to be Jewish. And I want our customers to not only be told they're represented and included, but see proof of it. I think the rainbow necklace speaks for itself in everything it represents about LGBTQIA inclusion, but if not, I'll say it here: my intention here was an in-your-face Pride-meets-Judaism piece. I hope you like it :)

2. The Jewish Star Enamel Singlet Necklace
Every once in a while, I'll Google image search: "Timothée Chalamet biting down on his Star of David necklace in Call Me By Your Name." But what type of star would I want to wear in an Italian villa pool? A super cute and fun one, which is why I landed on enamel for the stars. The material gives the charms a playfulness, but because of their size, they're still as subtle as you make them, totally buildable for necklace layering or statement-making enough to wear on their own. Available in three colors, it's choose your own adventure.

3. Star of David Studs
It's safe to say I'm obsessed with these earrings. First and foremost: they're fun. Don't they make you feel like you picked them up in a candy shop? And they're as playful as you style them—pop in a single star with your chic gold ear stack for an understated look or go all out with colors of the rainbow.

4. Jewish Star Friendship Bracelets
I love that Taylor Swift's Eras tour brought back the joy of friendship bracelets, because hand-crafted friendship bracelets are the inspiration behind these everyday, comfortable bracelets. Sure, they're elevated, but because I love the sentiment behind friendship jewelry, we're selling them individually OR as a set of two, so you can gift one to your bestie.Buy It ($36 for one) ($50 for a pair)
