Meet the founder
Hi, I'm Jada.
I'm Jada Newton-Etkins 🤍 and I started Sonder to help people mark their milestones, relationships, and the moments they never want to forget.
Everyone who sits down at my table arrives with a story worth honoring. So I take my time, explain every step, and make sure you leave feeling connected, confident and genuinely valued.
Based in Dumfries, bringing Sonder to pop-ups and private events all across the DMV.
- sonder (n.)
- The realization that each person is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.
- Sonder- (German)
- A prefix meaning special: beyond the ordinary, or made for a particular purpose.
Does it hurt?
Not at all. The weld happens on a tiny jump ring, away from your skin, and it's over in a flash of light.
What if I need to take it off?
It snips off in seconds with scissors or nail clippers, like before an MRI or surgery. Make sure to cut the jump ring and save the chain, and we'll re-weld it for free within a year of purchase.**A $15 re-welding fee applies to permanent jewelry that wasn't made by Sonder.
What if I get an MRI?
Always follow your medical professional's guidance. In most cases, they'll let you tape your jewelry down for an MRI without removing it. If it does need to come off, that's completely fine. Cut the chain at the jump ring with scissors or nail clippers, save the chain, and bring it back to us for a free re-weld within a year of purchase.
Can I shower, swim and work out in it?
Yes. It's made to stay on through your everyday. Chlorine and harsh chemicals can dull sterling silver over time, so a gentle clean now and then keeps it bright.
Will it turn my skin green?
No. Good chain makes the difference. Gold-filled chain has a thick layer of real gold bonded over its core, so it holds its color with normal wear. 14k solid gold is available on request.
Can I wear it through airport security?
Yes. Fine jewelry like this usually passes through security without being removed.
What do we need for a party at home?
A table, a few chairs, an outlet nearby and good light. We'll go over the details together when we plan your party.
How far do you travel?
We're happy to travel. It's complimentary within 15 miles of Dumfries, and farther events have a travel fee based on distance. Make sure to ask about it in your party request.
Do you do pop-ups?
Yes. Pop-up dates and locations are posted on Instagram at @sonderjewelryco.
