Candice Cherry, Founder of The Queens' Jewels, turns a sparkling idea into a handcrafted luxury glassware brand featured nationwide.
-- A Moment of Inspiration That Sparked a Legacy
St. Louis-based entrepreneur Candice Cherry is raising a glass to celebrate 11 years of success as the Founder and Owner of The Queens’ Jewels, a handcrafted luxury glassware brand. Born from a moment of inspiration at a spring wedding in 2014, Candice’s journey from stay-at-home mom to nationally recognized business owner is as brilliant as the jeweled glasses she creates.
What started as a flash of creativity—when Candice removed an earring and held it up to a plain wine glass—has grown into a luxury brand known for elegance, craftsmanship, and heartfelt connections. That simple moment ignited what she describes as her “million-dollar idea,” transforming everyday glassware into works of art that elevate life’s special moments.
Handcrafted Elegance with a Personal Touch
Every glass from The Queens’ Jewels is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in St. Louis, Missouri, reflecting a commitment to quality and American-made design. Each piece is adorned with jeweled embellishments, creating a distinct aesthetic that stands apart in a market often dominated by mass-produced products. This unique method earned Candice a United States patent, with additional patents pending, solidifying the brand's innovative approach.
More than just decorative items, the glassware is meant to capture memories, highlight milestones, and create memorable experiences. As Candice describes it, “It wasn’t just about creating something pretty—it was about making moments sparkle.”
From Local Shows to National Spotlight
The path from crafting at home to gaining national acclaim was neither short nor simple. Candice began exhibiting her creations at local holiday shows and quickly garnered interest from customers drawn to the beauty and individuality of her designs. Her breakthrough came when The Queens’ Jewels secured spots in permanent showrooms across the country, opening doors to high-profile exposure.
The brand has since been featured on Good Morning America, QVC, The View, and Live with Ryan and Kelly, and now partners with major names such as Dollywood, Miranda Lambert, NASA, Warner Bros., Biltmore, and Buc-ee’s. Each collaboration underscores the brand’s ability to deliver custom-designed glassware that aligns with iconic brands and moments.
The Woman Behind the Brand
At the heart of The Queens’ Jewels is a story of reinvention. Candice founded the business at age 40 after years as a full-time mom. Her experience raising two children, supporting her husband’s successful career, and nurturing her own artistic passions contributed to the formation of a brand rooted in personal meaning.
“My story is about turning a dream into a sparkling reality,” she explains. “I wanted to offer people more than just a glass—I wanted to offer an experience.”
Candice remains deeply involved in day-to-day operations, personally answering customer inquiries, ensuring product quality, and staying connected to the people who make her brand thrive. This level of engagement has helped foster customer loyalty and a reputation for excellence.
Celebrated for Excellence and Craft
In 2024, The Queens' Jewels was awarded Best Glassware Supplier in the Gift Industry by Gifts and Decorative Accessories, a nod to the quality, artistry, and innovation the brand brings to the table. The recognition serves as a major milestone for the company and affirms its place at the forefront of the luxury giftware space.
This accolade is not just about beautiful products—it honors a deeper philosophy. Each jeweled glass is part of someone’s celebration, someone’s story, and someone’s home. It’s a sentiment Candice returns to often: “Glassware is more than just an object—it’s a piece of someone’s life story.”
An Eye Toward the Future
With over a decade behind her and a growing legacy ahead, Candice Cherry continues to push the boundaries of what handcrafted glassware can mean. As trends shift and markets evolve, her dedication to beauty, quality, and connection remains unwavering.
The future for The Queens’ Jewels is full of promise. From new partnerships to expanded collections, Candice’s vision continues to evolve—always with sparkle, heart, and craftsmanship at its core.
