Tatum with little brother Jonathan, 1987.

Lovetatum™ Jewelry was established in the summer of 2006. However, I have been designing and making jewelry since I can remember. I began selling to the local high-end boutiques in my hometown of Point Pleasant, New Jersey, and later developed my jewelry in to a full-time business. I found that there is a high demand for my unique style of jewelry. It expresses my point of view as a young artist who is ahead of the trends, while the sheer quality appeals to a wide range of clientele. Based in La Jolla, California, I draw my inspiration from international beach life, translating it into any and every occasion. I use a combination of corals from the Caribbean, briolettes from India and China, and hand-carved stone pendants from Hong Kong and Bali, to name a few.

My unique pieces are handmade with sterling silver, 24kt electro-formed gold and adorned with semi-precious stones and pearls from all over the world. To me, it is important that my jewelry express something personal and individual. Every man and woman who wears Lovetatum™ should feel that his/her piece is special. My philosophy has always been to inspire creativity and promote positive energy in the world, and I will continue to reach and enrich… Love, Tatum Lenahan Owner/Jewelry Designer

Real gems preserved in 24kt gold? The beauty of this process is that each piece of jewelry is made from a real stone so each one is unique. No two are alike. The process is called electroforming. We take a hand-picked real stone and hand paint the surface with a copper-based paint. Once the natural surface is coated with the copper metal we are able to dip the base into a solution of 24kt gold or other specialized metal finishes such as Silver, Pink Copper, Iridescent Copper, Black, Cobalt Blue on Black, Rainbow Iridescent Copper, Antique Copper, Antique Silver, Antique Brass, Antique Gold and Green Copper Patina. The result is a beautiful stone that is preserved in pure 24kt gold or other finishes. Each stone is a unique handcrafted piece of wearable art. They go hand-in-hand with our gold overlay chains, which are manufactured to produce the finest alternative to solid 14kt jewelry.

uvarovite collection During my travels throughout Ireland this summer, I was inspired by everything GREEN. The lush and abundant emerald greenery with flicks of white sheep dispersed throughout the mountain tops of Ardara, Carrick and Kilcar and the deep blue tones of open ocean water on the cliffs of Slieve League and Glencolumbkille Glen Bay. I decided to incorporate the beauty and rarity of Ireland into my Uvarovite Collection. Uvarovite is a member of the garnet family and has mountainous, emerald-like crystals that grow on top of the stone. found in the Kola Peninsula of the Ural Mountains in Siberia, Russia, Uvarovite can only be mined for three months out of the year, when the snow melts from the mountain tops and the hidden gems are exposed. I fell in love with Ireland and hope I’ve translated that love into this collection.

drusy collection A bed of tightly packed crystals is the common growth habitat particular to quartz. When the bed has a very fine crystalline structure similar to sugar or salt crystals, it is known as drusy. Indulge this season with a little sugar and spice and everything nice.

ruby collection Ruby is the universal gemstone of love. This richly intense burgundy-colored stone from India and Thailand has become one of my favorite stones with which to design. Simply understated, it lends a subtle pop of color to any outfit. Remember you don’t need a mistletoe this winter, all you need is love.
