About Le Prochain Rêve
Le Prochain Rêve (The Next Dream) is the outcome of a collaboration between Ray Miller, a member of the EGL and alternative fashion community for eleven years, and Keeley Waite, a classically trained painter whose work focuses on the fantastical. The brand operates out of the San Francisco Bay Area in California.
At Le Prochain Rêve, our primary aim is to craft fine, unique, versatile accessories that accentuate individuality. Each piece is designed in-house in a process that champions detail and originality.
We work closely with our manufacturers to ensure highest quality at every step. At present, our accessories are cast in brass and plated with rhodium, palladium, 14K gold, or .925 sterling silver, depending on the collection, to prevent tarnishing and minimize allergic reactions to those who may have sensitivities.
Our pieces are ideated, sketched, and fully designed by us before being converted into 3D models. From there, molds are created, then hand-poured, cast, and polished to create each individual piece of jewelry.
We source almost all of our set props from charity establishments and seek to use recycled or recyclable materials in photography, production, and shipping whenever possible.
All of our designs are protected by copyright.
