How Shop143 came about
Gigi and Molly are sisters who were from Scituate, MA. They were inspired by the love story of the Minot Lighthouse in their hometown and it stuck. Gigi had to move to Ohio for her husbands business, and Molly moved to Florida for the same reason. They were both homesick and to relieve the sadness, they stared creating jewelry that reminded them of the sea. designs Gigi starting with handstamped 143 necklaces , reminding her of the special lighthouse that flashed 143 , which means I LOVE YOU..,soon molly was tweaking the designs and making her own, and the two decided to form a company.. with a coastal flair. In two short years the company has gone from selling a few necklaces on their facebook page to a presence in over 50 retail locations and strong online sales, surprising even the sisters!

Why their jewelry
If you ever wanted something romantic and that resembles the crisp blue sea and ocean, then these products are for you. Their designs will bring back memories of that special vacation of summers by the beach. Their most popular design which is a lighthouse signifies the legend of Minot Light in Scituate, Massachusetts. The designs themselves though are objects that are related to the sea like anchors, lighthouses, mermaids and more. Recently the girls have found a local factory in Rhode Island and do all the designing themselves but have the bracelets cast and enameled there…to keep up with the demand. The company has a rich local feeling, and believes 100 % that everything must be made by them or at least by local vendors in the USA…They are told time again to source their products overseas and get better pricing, but the girls refuse..if its not made in USA, you will not find it at 143Designs.
Now that they have expanded through the southern states, there will be more chances for the southerners to purchase the products of Shop143. As their business flourishes, they hope that they will have more retailers in the US in the future.
