How did ALCO start?Updated a month ago

ALCO began with a simple problem.

Our founder, Megan, loved spending time in the gym, at the beach, and on the water, but struggled to find jewelry that matched her style and could keep up with her everyday life. Most pieces tarnished after workouts, ocean swims, or daily wear, leaving her to choose between durability and beautiful design.

She set out to create something different: jewelry that looked elevated, felt effortless, and could be worn from morning workouts to sunset swims without needing to be taken off.

Today, ALCO creates thoughtfully designed, water resistant jewelry inspired by nature, travel, vintage heirlooms, and timeless style. Every collection is designed to be lived in, layered, and worn every day, so you never have to choose between beauty and durability.

Our name was inspired by The Alchemist, a reminder to create a life you love and embrace every adventure along the way.
