Is Was + Will Be is the design collective of Rex + Telle Lefler. We discovered our love for making jewelry back in our college days while working at a bead store in the tiny mountain community of Boone, NC. Fast forward nearly a decade and we find ourselves in Portland, OR creating full-time for our jewelry line Is Was + Will Be. Our designs are fueled by the journeys of life; we love working with unique materials that have stories as intriguing as the people who wear them!

///ABOUT OUR MATERIALS///

We focus on salvaged and vintage materials and source additional goods from small businesses who embrace the same values as us and manufacturers who have reputations for the quality of their products.
