Wren + Glory

Wren + Glory has partnered with Elvis Duran and the Morning Show to bring you a limited edition capsule collection. Designed with the Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, all pieces are made of brass and plated in 18k gold or white gold. The sound wave not only represents the logo, but also the gift of hearing that we often take for granted. Gloria & Renee, designing sisters behind the jewelry brand, have first hand understanding of this. Their dad was born with a major hearing deficiency, and has worn hearing aids his entire life.
