How it began
EPIPHANY
The Epiphany collection holds a special place in my heart and I would love to share with you the meaning and story behind this wonderful body of work.
During the unending lockdowns of COVID19 my anxiety started to feel out of control. The constant uncertainty and threat on our livlihoods, health and loved ones was causing a massive impact on our mental health as a population and even though I was relieved to hear I wasn't the only one feeling this way, it was a shock to learn just how many people (in the UK alone) suffer with mental health disorders as a direct impact of the pandemic.
"We needed something to help bring us back to a place of serenity and calm"...
When I first started dreaming up this collection, I didn’t have a clear idea in mind. I just knew I wanted the pieces to represent something bigger than us and would bring us closer in a time of such distance. I decided to take myself for a walk to the beach, as this is where I usually feel inspired. Then it hit me! Human beings need to feel grounded and it's been scientifically proven that when we are in nature, we feel happier, calmer, and more at peace with our lives.
"Designed to be enjoyed everyday with their soothing and calming benefits"...
The Epiphany collection was born from a place of struggle, and developed to help cope with stress and anxiety on a daily basis. Each piece is mindfully designed to be tactile and full of ocean textures that encourage you to feel grounded, calmer and closer to nature. Enjoy how these treasures feel against your skin, and how they move and sound. They are designed to be enjoyed everyday with their soothing and calming benefits, and perfect for anyone that struggles with anxiety, depression, OCD or panic attacks.
Inspired by the deep blue
Each piece is directly inspired by the ocean. This collection features an aray of unique and intricate details and textures that make each piece so special. Mindfully crafted to be timeless and perfect for everyday wear, they make gorgeous additions to your collection.
Not only will you want to pass them on to future generations, but they are designed in such a way that you will cherish the way they make you feel, emotionally and physically.
Making the Collection
The Epiphany Collection was developed to be more accessible to a wider audience by introducing the lost wax casting technique. This process means that I can replicate each design multiple times without having to re-make each piece and every scaly detail.

Sustainability
Each piece is created using recycled metals wherever possible. By recycling metals this takes pressure off mining for raw materials. It is also a wonderful way to re-purpose unworn jewellery into new treasures that can be passed down to future generations.
LEARN MORE ABOUT ECOLOGI
I believe jewellery should be built to last and treasured for a lifetime. For this reason I choose not to gold plate any of my work due to the short lived benefits and unsustainable implications.
I've partnered with Ecologi to plant a tree with every purchase! We are making serious steps toward a sustainable future by protecting our planet and giving back to mother nature whenever possible.
