Dreaming in Gold: Angie Saber on Building Rêves Jewelry

Written & Interviewed By : Hannah Corbett

If confidence could be wrapped in gold, it would look a lot like Rêves Jewelry. Founder Angie Saber has cracked the code on creating jewelry that makes you feel effortlessly chic—whether you’re heading into a big meeting, chasing a toddler around, or stepping out for a night with friends. In this exclusive In the Haven interview, Angie takes us behind the scenes of her journey from government work to the world of high-shine, statement-making jewelry.

For Angie, jewelry has always been more than just accessories—it’s personal, emotional, and powerful.

“I’ve been obsessed with jewelry since I was young, I always saw it as a way to elevate my confidence, to tell a story through something tangible.  And now as a Mom, it’s something in my everyday life that really brings everything together.”

Before launching Rêves, Angie had landed her dream job at the Department of State. Which is something she always knew she wanted to do, and she loved it. But like so many, the pandemic turned her world upside down. She switched departments, then became pregnant with her now 2-year-old daughter. And suddenly, she had a moment of clarity: I think I’m done here.

But what was she missing in the market? Jewelry that worked for her in real life. She wanted statement pieces that could transition seamlessly from work to mom life to a night out—pieces that made her feel put together, confident, and stylish without breaking the bank. And most importantly? Jewelry that wouldn’t tarnish or turn her skin green.

So, she created it.

French for “dreams,” Rêves is all about making everyday luxury feel effortless. While the name is technically pronounced how it reads (ree-v-z), Angie prefers ra-vay—“It just sounds better that way, more chic,” she says with a smile.

When I asked if Jewelry was always something she wanted to create she tells me that she’s always wanted to do everything.  Own a business, be in a corporate job, write a book, open a store.  “I’ve always wanted to try it all.”

Rêves Jewelry strikes that perfect balance between delicate and statement-making. Angie describes the brand’s aesthetic as “romantic yet powerful.”

“I design for the woman who wants her jewelry to feel personal and effortless,” she says. “Every piece should be something you never want to take off.”

From the Mara Studs to Gold Huggies, which in my opinion are the perfect gold hoops every girl should own, there’s something for everybody.  

And just in time for summer, Rêves is launching a brand-new waterproof collection.  Designed to withstand beach days, poolside lounging, and everything in between, this collection features fresh new designs that let you live in your jewelry worry-free.

When asked where she sees Rêves in five or ten years, Angie doesn’t hesitate to immediately say “I want Rêves to be an international brand”. She says “I want anyone, anywhere, to be able to wear our jewelry and feel confident.”

And if she could pick anyone to wear Rêves? “Kendall Jenner,” she says instantly, before adding, “but also Queen Rania of Jordan. Our jewelry is so diverse and statement-making that truly anyone can wear it and look amazing.”

With her passion, eye for detail, and an unstoppable vision, there’s no doubt that Rêves is on its way to becoming the brand for effortless, everyday luxury!
