ABOUT NATURE & CREATIVE PROCESS

  • All our paua shells have been sustainably sourced from a local paua marine farming operation. The juvenile shells did not mature and therefore are discarded as a waste product, from which evolve our unique jewellery pieces.
  • Our jewellery-making process is an artful fusion of organic nature and the electroforming technique, inspired by the wabi-sabi philosophy that finds beauty in imperfection. Unlike traditional cast pieces, our pieces capture the raw essence of nature itself. These charming quirks & irregularities from both element & the process enhance the authenticity and rustic character of each piece, making it one-of-a-kind. Remember that these treasures are delicate.

  • We work with natural elements to create pieces that are one-of-a kind. What you receive might not look exactly the same as what is pictured (unless stated otherwise), but each piece will share your individuality and uniqueness!

MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

We proudly offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all our jewellery (some exclusions may apply). If you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may return it within 30 days from the date of receiving the item for a full refund. Click this link for the full details.

When I opened the box, it was exciting for me. I truly think they are beautiful. I collect sea glass and often pick up whole dead kina. I love displaying them. I have terminal cancer, going to the beach is one of the places I feel contented and happy.

Love these so much. Beautiful quality

I bought this beautifully crafted gift for my mum for Christmas. She is so hard to buy for and I wanted something super special. I needed look no further then this gorgeous piece.
Symbolic and meaningful, my mum was thrilled, and I was equally as thrilled to put such a big smile on her face.
Thank you so much Rina, love your work!
