Sustainable Design and Manufacturing

Sustainable Design

I believe jewellery should be designed to last a lifetime. Each piece begins with a set of considered questions:

• Can it be made using recycled or reusable materials?
• Will it stand the test of time, both in durability and design?
• Can it be repaired and restored over years of wear?
• If it is ever no longer worn, can it be melted down or reimagined into something new?

If the answer is no to any of these, the design is reconsidered.

Manufacturing Process

Each piece is handcrafted in my Sydney studio using traditional silver and goldsmithing techniques. I work in small batches or on a made-to-order basis to minimise waste and avoid overproduction.

This approach means your piece may take a little longer to arrive - thank you for your patience and understanding.

Metals

I primarily work with Australian-sourced sterling silver and gold. Where necessary, some findings are sourced from overseas.

Depending on the design, each piece is made from 75% to 100% recycled metals. The alloys I use are carefully selected to suit the specific techniques and requirements of each piece.
