Our story

Timeless silver jewellery lovingly designed and handmade in South London using a range of contemporary and traditional jewellery making techniques

Oh, hello there! I'm glad you've stopped by.

Are you looking for a jewellery gift; for a loved one or maybe for yourself? I've got you covered. All jewellery is beautifully gift wrapped and can be sent to a gift recipient directly with a personalised message at no extra cost.

Who's behind this jewellery, designing and making it? It's me, Sonja. I grew up in Germany where my parents, grandparents and uncle all had their own jewellery shop. We lived above ours; so I was surrounded my bling from a young age.

After graduating from university I worked as an event manager. It was an exciting part of my life, but I certainly missed being creative with my hands. After becoming a mum this wonderful but rollercoaster of a ride gave me the courage to turn my fascination for working with metal and fire into a new career path.

I'm absolutely passionate about making contemporary and timeless silver jewellery. I’m drawn to clean lines, geometry and the simple beauty of nature with its incredible structures.

All pieces are originals and handmade with a real enthusiasm for making beautiful, and, most importantly, wearable jewellery.

In case you're after a jewellery commission or a slightly different piece do get in touch. I love a challenge.

    "Sonja is a wonderful artist and I am so pleased I've come across her. The piece she made for me was totally unique and I wasn't sure if she's take it on. She absolutely did and did an amazing job. The necklace itself has a special meaning, so it's this much more dear to me. Thank you Sonja, I am forever grateful."
