Delekta Jewelry is a brand for the creative-minded individual with a strong sense of style and spirit, never afraid of exploring and ever curious. Designing sculptural pieces with a sophisticated edge, we produce statement jewelry and modern staples. Handcrafted in Asheville, NC with great attention to detail, imagination and timeless character.

Founder Jes Millo hails from a fashion background, working at companies such as Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler and Alexander Wang. In 2025, she decided to change gears and turn her energy towards jewelry, a love since childhood, evolving styles and iterations throughout the years.

Jes is highly inspired by nature, from gemstones deep within the earth to the galaxies of the universe. Between 20 years immersed in the NYC art scene and the new creative experiences in Asheville, NC, diverse art is an ever-present influence on her designs. Architecture, fabrics and fashions from world travel also impact the creative process.

Sustainability is very important to her as well. Although we do not label ourselves a sustainable jewelry brand, we vow to make environmentally responsible decisions as much as possible. We are committed to quality over quantity, with everything crafted in small batches and using recyclable materials.
