Jeweller’s Promise

Every piece is handcrafted by me in my Brisbane studio. Whether one-of-a-kind or part of a small batch, I create jewellery that’s unique, meaningful, and never mass-produced.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

These aren't your everyday gold studs. Oriel was created for someone who wants something simple enough to wear often, but with the character and individuality of a piece you'll keep for years.

Each earring is formed in 9ct gold with an organic, molten texture, creating subtle variations across the surface and giving the pair its own individual character. Set into each piece is a vibrant sky blue topaz, its clear blue colour glowing against the warmth of the gold.

There is something wonderfully warm about the way the gold and topaz work together. The clean, vivid colour of the stones brings a sense of brightness, while the irregular gold forms give the earrings depth, character and a distinctly handmade feel.

Molten, organic and with a warmth of their own, Oriel is a pair to wear now and love for years to come.

HANDCRAFTED PROCESS & FINISH

Each piece is individually hand-carved, cast, and finished using traditional jewellery-making techniques. Because of this process, you may notice subtle variations in the metal surface, including gentle patterns or tonal shifts in certain areas.

These characteristics are a natural result of casting and hand-finishing and are not structural flaws. They do not affect the strength, durability, or wearability of the piece. Rather, they are part of what makes each design truly one of a kind, reflecting its handmade origin rather than a mass-produced finish.

Every piece is carefully inspected and finished to ensure it meets a high standard of quality while preserving the integrity and character of the handmade process.

MATERIALS

Sterling Silver
Crafted in solid 925 Sterling Silver, chosen for its durability, wearability, and timeless cool tone. Suitable for everyday wear and designed to age beautifully over time.

9ct Gold
Made using solid 9ct gold, an alloy valued for its strength, longevity, and warm, subtle yellow hue. Its durability makes it well suited to pieces intended for regular wear.

Please note: If you have known metal sensitivities or allergies, it’s best to consider this before purchasing, as alloy compositions can vary.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is a metal that can naturally tarnish and turn dull over time. To keep your sterling silver looking shiny, store your jewellery pieces away from moisture, harsh chemicals (including household chemicals), perfumes and lotions. It is recommended you remove your jewellery before swimming, bathing and hand washing.

One of the best ways to prevent sterling silver jewellery from tarnishing is by wearing it. Your skin's oils can help to keep the jewellery clean and maintain its brilliance.

Cleaning can also be done easily with a silver polishing cloth (I recommend a Sunshine Polishing Cloth), but avoid the cloth coming into contact with any gemstones and/or gold vermeil.

9ct Gold
9ct Gold can lose its shine. Keep it looking its best by storing your jewellery pieces away from moisture, harsh chemicals (including household chemicals), perfumes and lotions. It is recommended you remove your jewellery before swimming, bathing and hand washing.

You can easily clean your 9ct gold jewellery by soaking it in some lukewarm water and after a couple of minutes, scrubbing it gently with a soft toothbrush and mild soap.

Gemstones
Skeleton Coast Jewellery takes pride in selecting natural gemstones and diamonds that are completely unique and one-of-a-kind. These stones may contain inclusions which do not signify a flaw within the stone, but rather the individuality of something that has been created by Earth many lifetimes ago.

It should be noted that gemstones and even diamonds can break if they aren’t handled with care. The pressure and angle of impact are the main contributing factors. Please contact me with any questions regarding gemstone and diamond care.
