Key Features:
Each piece of jewellery is handcrafted in Sydney, Australia, ensuring that no two designs are alike. Subtle signs of the crafting process, such as slight variations in texture, tiny air bubbles, or colour shifts, are natural in handmade keepsakes. These details add to the uniqueness of your keepsake, creating character and depth.
