HART

HART is a jewelry store in Charleston, SC, located at 650 King Street. The brand was founded in 2016 by Hart Hagerty, a seventh-generation native Charlestonian who studied Chinese and Sociology at Vanderbilt University, lived in Shanghai for five years, and worked in advertising in New York City before returning home to launch her jewelry line. Hart's sister joined in 2020 and, as CEO, manages sales and marketing, day-to-day operations, and the numbers, and has led the opening of the Charleston flagship and a New York store.

HART designs jewelry around the idea of self-transformation and manifestation, describing its pieces as a jewelry toolkit meant to be worn together: mixing metals, layering lengths, adding color, and building meaning. The line grew from signature tassel earrings into beaded bracelets with mindful mantras and customizable charm jewelry. The charm builder lets customers choose a chain - options include Mixed Link, Heritage, Chunky, Belcher, Mini Belcher, Long Link, and Jane chains, plus bracelet chains - and then select charms by intention or size, among them love and hearts, empowerment, fun, MAMA, enamel, zodiac, and engravable pieces, with letters, numbers, and charms such as the Heart of Gold, Amor Fati, Fortuna Horseshoe, Divine Spark Matchstick, and Baroque Pearl. A limited-edition collaboration draws on the mythology and treasures of the sea. The company also offers jewelry care products, including a cleaning kit, earring travel case set, alterations bundle, and velvet vanity case.

Custom jewelry is assembled by a small full-time team and local artisans in a downtown studio, with gemstones and manufacturing handled through long-standing jewelry experts and a female-run boutique manufacturer in Asia. HART's primary charitable focus is MIDA, an annual fundraiser for the Hamida Patrick Cancer Fund at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, co-organized by founder Hart Hagerty.

The store sits on King Street, about 0.1 miles from Septima Clark Expressway and a similar distance from King Street itself, with Meeting Street roughly 0.2 miles away. Calvary Episcopal Church and the Jonathan Jasper Wright memorial are both about 0.2 miles from the shop, and Spring Street is a short walk beyond.

HART brings charm-based, intention-driven jewelry to King Street, in the city where its founder was raised and where its custom pieces are assembled.
