Hello!

My name is Nicole Penner and I am the CEO and founder of Olive Branch Jewelry INC., I also have the help of my incredible husband, Cameron Penner. We are so fortunate to have an amazing team of in-house designers, goldsmiths, and associates who all contribute to our day-to-day functioning and success! 

Olive Branch began with a literal dream I had; I dreamt one evening that I would open a storefront in downtown Lethbridge and name it Olive Branch. Long story short, we did just that! Our growth feels miraculous and I just know gods hand and heart is in it all. 

I easily fell in love with designing, creating, and building engagement rings and wedding bands. This love developed so naturally and so did the business.  I have had the privilege of customizing engagement rings, wedding bands, and sentimental pieces for clients all across Canada and the USA. We create engagement rings on a regular basis for Lethbridge, Calgary, and Vancouver clients. Some honorable mentions are our clients located in Tofino, Fernie, Fairmont, the Yukon, Iowa, Chicago, Bryan (Texas), Philadelphia, and more!

I have grown my business based on the importance of customer care, quality, integrity, and a genuine love of design. In addition to this, my goal was to build a brand that simply wasn’t like the rest. You will not find what everyone else is wearing in our showrooms or on our website; our pieces are unique, thoughtfully designed, and intentionally considered. Our aesthetic and standards of production have allowed us to complete in a market that values margins over quality, copying instead of creativity, and affluence over customer care. I pride myself on setting a different standard. 

We truly could not have done this without you; thank you so much for choosing to support and work with us! It’s my greatest pleasure to design and build jewelry that becomes some of your most valued and coveted treasures. 

With the most love and gratitude,

Nicole & Cameron
