Meet Mckenzie

 

 

McKenzie Liautaud is a NYC based Private Jeweler and Entrepreneur. 

Liautaud first launched a capsule collection of Men's accessories including bespoke Men's bow ties and hand-finished pocket squares using recycled fabrics embellished with hardware, crystals and metal findings. The Haitian American Artist  draws inspiration from his travels around the globe finding the heartbeat of each collection through inspiration he discovers along the way-- Venice  to Mykonos, Lisbon to Paris,  Mexico City to Marrakech. Mckenzie infuses each season with international style.

In 2020 during the height of the pandemic Liautaud introduced the Power Crystals collection , blending his practice of meditation & manifestation with fine jewelry. The first drop featured  ethically sourced stone pendants - each carved with precision inset with diamonds , and  became a  favorite of Hollywood’s finest such as SJP, Eva Longoria,  Lil Nas X and Maluma. 

The brand’s metaMOORphosis collection reimagines Royalty & Moorish heritage with luxurious silk scarves and  leisure sets as seen on Nicole Ari Parker on  And Just Like That final episode Season 3 . 

In 2021 , Liautaud received the EDDI Award -- a partnership with Natural Diamond Council &  LORRAINE SCHWARTZ dedicated to supporting emerging BIPOC jewelers.

In 2022, Liautaud is  recognized as “The Leader of the Crystal Pack ” by Vanity Fair , his work has  been featured in prominent publications including the NY Times, Town & Country, WWD, Airmail , Forbes , Out Magazine  and Essence. 

His work is shaped by his personal belief of channeling good energy & protection by wearing healing gemstones including Rock Crystal (his favorite) Citrine, Rose Quartz, Onyx, Amethyst and Black Tourmaline. “They are a combination of wellness, spirituality & high fashion,”  says Mckenzie  

Liautaud’s commitment to sustainability is evident in the  brand’s  Ready Reset Go  platform , launched in 2023 inviting clients to repurpose their heirloom jewels, damaged and divorce gems into modern bespoke creations or towards a credit for a future purchase .
