For the art world and fashionistas, JamJar
Flowers is coveted for its creativity and
unexpected arrangements. Owner
Melissa Richardson mixes charm with
artistic flair while having an architectural
underpinning. She launched her shop in
2009, after running a modeling agency
for three decades. Having had a front-
row seat to fashion and trends, her work is
never conventional but always beautiful.
Fashion designers particularly love her
ability to understand what their needs
are for any given party and how to have
flowers make a fashion statement. In
2017, Richardson launched JamJar Edit,
a flower-pressing studio and online shop
that offers a curated edit of distinctive
table, home and garden wares.
