The history of Coldwater Creek begins with Ann and Dennis Pence moving from New York City to Sandpoint, Idaho. In January 1984, they released their first catalog, which featured 18 nature-themed products, including a unique $300 water phone designed to communicate with humpback whales.

During the late 1980s and early 1990s, Coldwater Creek gradually expanded its product line, moving from a niche business focused on novelties to a line of clothing and accessories.

One of the notable lines of costume jewelry was brooches, pins, and pendants with Christmas motifs. For the costume jewelry, they used gold-plated jewelry alloy with semi-precious stones such as jade, amethyst, as well as rhinestones and enamel. The brooch figures were hand-made.

By 1996, the company had achieved impressive results, with sales of $143.1 million and a significantly expanded catalog.

In 2020, the company closed its physical and online stores due to the pandemic, but reopened in 2021 after being acquired by a new owner, Newtimes Group.
