Our Story

be jeweled is a women-owned and operated boutique nestled in a historic brick building along the charming cobblestone streets of New Bedford’s Whaling National Historic Park.

Our founder, Pamela, has loved jewelry and design since childhood. She would save her paper route money to buy small sterling silver charms that she would “merchandise” on her bedroom shelves.

Pamela started selling jewelry in earnest at the age of 15 for her friend and mentor, a local scrimshander, aboard the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. She later spent many memorable summers working alongside him at his store on the Vineyard.

After college, she followed her wanderlust desires. She traveled and lived in many places, most notably, San Francisco, where she discovered and fell in love with the artistic value of designer jewelry.

In 1997 Pamela opened her first home based jewelry business, eventually establishing the store of her dreams, be jeweled, in 2000 in the charming seaside village of Padanaram, MA. In 2002 she opened be jeweled’s second location in her favorite building, on her favorite street, in the historic district of downtown New Bedford. In 2019 she consolidated to our one flagship location in New Bedford in an effort to simplify both operations and life.

We continue to adore jewelry for both its artistic value and as objects of adornment allowing each of us to express our individuality. For us, the discovery of new designers and styles we love, remains as exciting as ever. We are driven to find the unexpected and beautiful to add to our broad range of styles.

We hope you’ll find pieces that you will treasure as well, that will bring you joy and add beauty and diversity to your own collection. xo
