Every piece of Coastalstyle jewellery begins with the same question:
Which material will best honour this design ?
Rather than using one metal for every piece, materials are chosen to best captures the natural textures, strength and character of each design.
Many of the Ocean Inspired pieces are created in fine silver (99.9% pure silver)
It's beautifully soft white lustre allows one to capture very delicate textures taken directly from nature.
Fine Silver is naturally hypoallergenic, making it the perfect choice for sensitive skin.
It is also highly resistant to tarnishing, requiring very little maintenance to keep its gentle glow.
Fine Silver is made to be worn, enjoyed and lived in.
For designs that benefit from additional strength, Argentium Silver is perfect.
Argentium is a modern silver alloy developed to remain brighter for longer, with excellent resistance to tarnishing compared with traditional sterling Silver.
Like Fine Silver it is hypoallergenic and comfortable for everyday wear, while offering the durability needed for pieces designed to accompany you through daily life.
Some designs call for the warmth of gold, and depending on the piece, 9ct and 14ct Gold are offered
All of the Sapphires have been personally sourced from the Sapphire Gemfields in Queensland. Each stone offers beautiful teals, blues and greens reminding us of the colours of the ocean, making each piece beautifully individual while celebrating one of Australia's most remarkable treasures.
Freshwater pearls and genuine sea glass bring a quiet softness to many of the designs, perfectly complementing the organic textures found throughout the Coastalstyle collection.
I believe jewellery should become part of everyday life, not something only saved for special occassions.
Every material I choose is selected not only for its beauty, but also for its comfort, durability and ease of care.
Whether you are walking along the beach, enjoying time with family or celebrating life quieter moments, my hope is that your jewellery becomes something you reach for everyday, and one day is passed on with a story of its own.
