The shop
Established in 2022, the studio was born from a dream to connect people with the craft of jewellery making. I believe that jewellery tells stories that grow with time and are passed down through generations. Every piece I create is crafted with that intention in mind.
All of the pieces are made in the studio while working closely with a small team.
The space offers a unique combination of a retail area and a working studio. While you’ll find a selection of ready-to-wear jewellery, the heart of our shop is the workshop itself. Here, you can catch a glimpse of the many specialized tools we use to handcraft custom pieces—from traditional jewellers benches to modern equipment that ensures precision and durability.
