Our Story
Susan Dunn is the founder and creative principal of Susan Dunn, Inc., based in Rancho Santa Fe, California. With nearly four decades of experience, she has built a water-inspired luxury design universe under the philosophy of Solace per Aqua® — Peace through Water.
The Serenity Fine Jewelry collection is the most concentrated expression of that philosophy. Crafted in 18- karat Fairmined gold and set with ethically sourced diamonds of documented provenance, each piece is individually cast and hand-finished by master jewelers. The collection encompasses four distinct expressions — High Pavé, High Pure, Rain, and Signature — each resolving the water-drop form in a different register of beauty.
Susan holds a degree in economics from Stanford University and completed culinary and wine training in Paris. She co-founded a couture fashion manufacturing company in Italy before developing the Solace per Aqua® collections. Her work is held by a private client base built over nearly four decades.
