Intentional creativity. Handcrafted luxury. Meaningful collaborations.
The Sparkle Company Chicago®
Crystal artistry. Storytelling. A world built one sparkle at a time.
The Sparkle Company Chicago® is an artist-led creative studio founded by Chicago artist, designer, and world-builder Shakila B.
Rooted in hand-placed crystal artistry and expanded through design, storytelling, fashion, and imaginative world-building, the work explores what can happen when ordinary objects and ideas are given extraordinary care.
From one-of-a-kind pieces created for celebrated artists and iconic venues to the ever-expanding SparkleVerse, each project is created with intention, craftsmanship, and story.
This is more than sparkle. It is creativity made visible.
Please note: Commission requests are accepted selectively, and featured portfolio pieces are not available for replication.

The Heart of This
Space
Hey, Sparkle Bestie I’m Shakila.
I have always loved beautiful things, but over time, sparkle came to mean something much deeper to me than decoration.
My journey with cancer changed the way I understand time, creativity, faith, purpose, and even beauty itself. Creating became more than something I enjoyed doing. It became a place where I could imagine, process, hope, build, pray, and continue becoming.
Some seasons have been filled with extraordinary opportunities. Others have required me to create quietly, one day—and sometimes one crystal—at a time.
Both belong to my story.
The Sparkle Company has grown alongside me. What began with handcrafted embellished pieces has expanded into artistry, storytelling, miniature world-building, design, writing, and an ever-growing universe I call the SparkleVerse.
I no longer believe every creative interest has to fit neatly into one box.
The thread connecting all of it is simple:
I create things that bring beauty, joy, meaning, and a little more light into the world.
And as I continue telling my story—including the parts shaped by cancer, faith, uncertainty, healing, creativity, family, and becoming—I hope this space reminds someone else that beauty can still be created in the middle of an unfinished story.
