The Story Behind the Original Map Jewelry Brand Made by Talia Sari.
Where Jewelry Meets Memory
What if your jewelry could do more than just sparkle? What if it could hold a memory - a place, a moment, a feeling - and keep it close to your heart? That’s exactly what Talia Sari set out to create.
It All Started With a Sketch
While studying industrial design, Talia Sari began sketching maps of the cities she had lived in - places like Cleveland, Rome, and Jerusalem - for a local exhibition exploring identities. Those map drawings soon evolved into her very first necklaces. A piece of jewelry that could carry a memory.
Meet Talia: Designer, Storyteller, Founder
Talia Sari is an award-winning industrial designer with a passion for meaningful design. Her background blends architecture, art, and emotional storytelling — a mix that led her to invent the original custom map necklace.
From Kickstarter to 50,000 Customers
In 2018, Talia launched the idea on Kickstarter. The response was overwhelming. People from around the world shared the places that shaped them - first homes, travels, proposals - and asked her to turn them into jewelry. Since then we served a global community with more than 50,000 happy customers.
We Were the First to Design Custom Map Jewelry
Talia Sari was the first brand to turn real-world maps into elegant, wearable keepsakes. Since then, others have copied the concept - but none match the quality, care, or original craftsmanship.
What Is Custom Map Jewelry?
Each piece starts with a location: the city you met, the street you grew up on, the view from your favorite window. We use satellite data to turn that place into a delicate, minimalist design - and then handcraft it in metal.
Every Piece Is Made Just for You
No templates. No generic maps. Each necklace is designed from scratch by our team to reflect your exact location and story. Every detail - from streets to layout - is created for that one person alone.
Small Studio, Big Heart
We are a small team of young autistic professionals specializing in design, craft, and creative storytelling. Each order is made with care and purpose, using a blend of technology and human touch.

We ship worldwide and work with customers in over 50 countries. Whether it’s a birthday in Boston or an anniversary in Australia, we’ll help you mark it with meaning.

How the Design Process Works?
You choose a meaningful location or address - like where you first met - and select your preferred jewelry type, whether it's a necklace, ring, or earrings, along with your choice of material such as 14k gold or sterling silver. Our team carefully refines the design to make sure every detail feels just right, then sends you a preview for approval. Once confirmed, your custom piece is handcrafted and shipped - usually within 7-10 business days.
Thoughtful Gifts for Every Occasion
From anniversaries to birthdays, new homes to new beginnings, our jewelry is designed to celebrate life’s most meaningful moments.
