About

Hello and welcome to my work! I'm Natalie, and I make jewellery :)

I have liked making jewellery ever since I was little, using bits of wire, beads, clay, and found objects (once turning a pair of sample perfume vials into earrings for an especially adventurous friend!) I loved trying as many materials as I could get my hands on. Later, as a young adult, I studied mathematics and worked with statistics for the tech industry. After working digitally for many years, I started making handcrafts to connect with the real world again. I haven't looked back since :)

All of my work is original and made by hand using the lost wax method, a very old technique which allows me to carve intricate details by hand. I enjoy the design, handcarving, stone-setting, and polishing of every jewel that goes out into the world! The only part I don't do is the metal casting — for this, I trust a brilliant local caster who takes excellent care of my work.

My favourite thing about jewellery is the way it creates a personal feeling of delight. Metal and stone are some of the longest-lasting materials around, so I do my best to create work that will continue to give delight in the future — passed forward from the dearest of family, or sweetest of friends ❤️

Take care and thank you for stopping by!

Natalie
