My designs are the things of daydreams, colorful abstractions & underwater life, brought to life with my own two hands using the ancient "lost wax" technique.

Morgan Patricia Designs is the creation of LA-based jewelry designer, Carlie Matthews. Her organic line of handcrafted jewelry is inspired by memories of growing up on the sunny beaches of New Jersey, south Florida, and dreams of faraway tropical lands. She believes that personal style is truly an expression of your imagination, with hers stemming from having spent the better part of her childhood exploring the shoreline & swimming in the surf. Carlie’s tiny wearable sculptures escape reality and float in an ethereal world of seashells, barnacles, sharks, and mermaids. Intricate details and effortless wearability give a feeling of serenity to the wearer and embody the timeless silhouettes that make up the collection of 14k gold, sterling silver, and a rainbow assortment of opals with a splash of diamonds. She believes in designing jewelry you can live in; meant for any occasion, and always purchased with a cause. 1% of all sales are donated to educating our youth on the importance of our oceans! Find out more about how this aquatic allure truly captured Carlie’s interest through the international shark saving organization, Shark Angels. Morgan Patricia Designs exudes whimsical luxury with a focus on one of a kind pieces and delicate staples for all women, both young and young at heart alike. The line is created with a little bit of sunshine and ocean vibes, through the lost wax casting method using recycled metals and ethically sourced natural, raw, and polished gemstones in downtown, Los Angeles.

Love avocado toast? An over easy egg on fresh bread? Dim sum and green tea? Coffee on the go? This collection is my miniature, sparkling way of sharing a bit of that breakfast date magic with you all ☺️☕️🥑🍳🍞

Despite the heat wave, we made our way to the farmers market this morning. Shopping small + local is not only good for your community, but it’s DELICIOUS too 🤤 Looking to gift the baker, brunch obsessed, or bread lover in your life? This charm duo is perfect!

The best part is that a portion of all MPD food-themed sales will be donated to World Central Kitchen —because food is love, and love should be shared ❤️

What better way to celebrate National Coffee Day ☕️❤️ The Breakfast collection one-of-a-kind hand carved mugs were inspired by slow mornings with friends over coffee.

While this obviously falls outside of my sea-inspired niche, the whimsical “C Creations” capsule collections feed my soul. The Breakfast items also feed into a cause I whole-heartedly believe in, with a portion of all food-inspired sales going to World Central Kitchen . May we all find ways to expand our art and creativity into doing good in the world.

These mugs make the perfect addition to your morning ritual and self-care jumble! Shop these beauties at the link in profile under *The Breakfast Collection*

A custom reworking of my client’s engagement ring and wedding bands 💍🤩 Scroll for process photos and final details!

Cortney was looking to combine elements of her original four into one easy to wear ring featuring her heirloom diamond, a sapphire halo, and the diamonds from her father’s band. We set her father’s diamonds into a hidden halo beneath the basket and incorporated additional diamonds down the sides ✨👌🏼 I love how that hidden halo is a BRIGHT sparkling surprise! This was a fun one, thanks Cortney!

DM with inquiries on your own custom re-design 💌 And if a holiday surprise gift is on your list this year, now is the time to get those orders started!

Scroll 👉🏼 for peeks at the process of making the dreamiest custom pink tourmaline ring! The hummingbird was clearly there for the vibes 💖

This client is one of my oldest friends, and it always means the world to me when friends and family come to me with their dream ideas! So glad to say I’m absolutely in love with how this 18k, 4.45ct cushion cut pink tourmaline, and assorted pink sapphire ring turned out. From sourcing the perfect shade of pink tourmaline to a CAD design that matched her vision, and hand selecting the complimentary shades of pink sapphire… It’s perfect on you, Annie!

I’m getting started on custom holiday gift orders, so DM here or use the contact page at the link in profile with your own custom inquiries 💌

I am so excited to share this custom seashell pendant I recently finished for a client! Our design journey began earlier this year when I traveled to the Tucson Gem Show in search for the perfect opal carved seashell.

My client chose this vibrant, striped opal for her design to be set in a mix of 14k yellow and white gold, accented by an array of blue and green gemstones to signify the sea, and set with a sweet starfish prong.

I am absolutely thrilled with how this custom pendant turned out! A mix of blue sapphires, blue topaz, emerald, and blue tourmaline perfectly complemented the fire in the opal. The design, bubbly details, accent gemstone sizes and placement flowed through me as easily as the soft red wax that I carve. It was such a joy to create!

If you are interested in designing around the blue opal carved seashell in this video, DM with your custom inquiries! She is available and waiting for her forever home!

I launched this collection with a handful of palm tree pendants that are ready to ship! But did you know that there are 20 more loose dendritic agate palm trees for you to choose from? You select the palm tree and the palm leaf style that I’ll add to the backside through 4 different “Made to Order” listings (small, medium, large, or coral reef) on our Latest Drop page!

Just a little behind the scenes footage of the golden glow ✨ and magic 💫of the brand new dendritic agate Palm Tree collection. Special shout out to Bob Ring for taking the reins on this voiceover!

This little cutie is more opaque, and the palm leaf on the backside is her own little secret until she’s flipped over (or you hold her up to the sunlight!) Made to be worn either way, I love a good double sided pendant! 🌴
