About Poppy Lane

Poppy Lane is a modern Jewish shop with a point of view. We curate and create apparel, jewelry, Judaica, gifts, and other things we think deserve a place in your life.

Some are meaningful. Some are irreverent. Most are both.

Everything here is chosen with intention, a sense of humor, and very little tolerance for boring.

Our Story

In My Ears, In My Heart

Long before there was a shop, there was Poppy Lane.

We celebrated our daughter’s second birthday at the California Poppy Reserve. Inspired by her favorite Beatles song, she called it “Poppy Lane.” The name stuck.

A whole lot of chaos later, when I needed a name for something entirely different, I already had one.

Our First Collaboration

Resilient AF

On October 1, 2023, Poppy Lane launched with a Breast Cancer Awareness collection created with tattoo artist June Jung.

I knew something about resilience by then. I’d spent the previous few years going through breast cancer treatment myself.

The idea was simple: make something beautiful out of something that wasn’t.

And then, six days later, everything changed.

Natural Connection

Israel at Heart

On October 7, 2023, Poppy Lane was six days old.

What happened next changed the direction of the shop entirely. What began as a small creative project became an urgent way to support Israeli artists, designers, and businesses during an unimaginably difficult time.

We began bringing their work to customers here in the U.S., starting with designers like Shlomit Ofir and Marina Jewelry. What started as a response to a moment became something much more lasting.

And somewhere along the way, the name Poppy Lane took on another meaning: California's state flower on one side, Israel's red kalaniot on the other.

Two flowers. Two lands. One Poppy Lane.

An Unexpected Partnership

Smallest Nation.
Largest Family

Our first collections, Hatikvah and Anti-Antisemitism Club, eventually led us to Eitan Chitayat.

After sending him a few pieces, we started working together on his I’m That Jew™ and other collections.

Later, we discovered our extended families played bridge together at a retirement community in Boca Raton.

Because Jewish geography is undefeated.

Tikkun Olam

Leave it Better

Poppy Lane has always been about more than making and finding good things.

Tikkun Olam means repairing the world. We take that seriously, even if we don't take ourselves seriously all the time.

Through our products, partnerships, and collaborations, we've supported organizations doing meaningful work in Israel and Jewish communities around the world, including:

  • Hostages & Missing Families Forum
  • Jewish National Fund
  • Kibbutz Movement
  • Ten Gav

Buy something you love. Help leave things a little better than you found them.

Voices

Different perspectives. Same general inability to keep quiet.
