About LilyVeronaLondon

I was born in Afghanistan  a land rich in culture but shadowed by struggle. I grew up in London, carrying two worlds within me: the traditions of my roots and the dreams of a freer future.

At 22, when I should have been completing my final year of university, I became a mother. I pressed pause on my education and dreams, believing my future now belonged only to my children. But behind every smile, I carried a quiet ache — a dream of becoming a strong businesswoman who could give hope to women like me.

For years, I devoted myself to my home, my children, and my culture. But deep inside, the little girl who once dreamed of changing her world never stopped whispering. As my boys grew older, I realised it was finally time to listen.

My first step was small — a job as a sales assistant at Goldsmiths. But that step changed everything. Through long hours of learning and growing, I fell in love with the art of fine jewellery. I discovered how gold and diamonds can hold emotions, memories, and stories that last forever.

With the support of a mentor who believed in me when I struggled to believe in myself, I created my first set — a pendant and earrings crafted with 1 carat diamonds and 18K gold. It wasn’t just jewellery. It was a promise to the woman I was meant to become.

In June 2025, I turned that promise into reality and launched my own jewellery brand from the corner of my home. What began as a dream has grown into multiple pop-ups across London and beyond. Each piece I design is created with purpose — to hold a story, to carry strength, and to shine with meaning.

This brand is built on pain, hope, and unshakable resilience. It stands for every Afghan girl and woman who has ever been told her dreams were too big. My jewellery is more than beauty — it’s a symbol of strength, identity, and a dream that refused to be silenced.

Every diamond is a heartbeat. Every design, a story.

This is my legacy — and now, it can be part of yours.
