Announcement I love making jewellery and everything I make comes from the heart. I use a variety of shells, semi-precious stones and gems,which are intricately wrapped or using metalwork on it.
I put a lot of myself into my work and sometimes I feel a little sad to see the final pieces go, but I have faith tthat they will have found their true home and that they will be worn with pride and happiness by their new owners.
I am happy to personalise anything on the site, if you'd like something made especially for you, please feel free to contact me, for example if you have your own beautiful stone or shell you would like me to work with. And most of all THANK YOU for spending your time reading this :)

This little anklet is absolutely delightful. Beautifully made, using natural materials, having lovely subtle colours and giving an attractive, delicate look to the ankle. Sonia was a very kind and helpful seller and I shall definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, Sonia.

Absolutely delighted with my anklet and bracelet which have been beautifully handmade by the lovely Sonia who I was fortunate to meet at a festival. nAfter sending Sonia my measurements, she made my jewellery soon after. Sonia gave great advice on my choice of pendants. Will definitely buy more stuff from Sonia for me and as gifts and have recommended her to friends.

On Etsy since 2009

I love my kids ❤️

I have always loved shells and ever since I was young, I was hoping that one day I would be able to create pieces of jewellery with the shells I had found. When I was older, I made my first pair of earrings, but I did not think of it as a business- I only did pieces for myself and occassionally for close friends.

After splitting up from my husband, I was told to "go get a job". Being a mum is the most important job in my life, and I did not want to leave my kids behind. Therefore, I was looking for ways to work from home. I thought of my love for jewellery and slowly, with a lot of help from friends, I created my very own business. Here I am, a couple of years later, doing a job that I absolutely love. I have now started teaching my skill to others and sharing with them my passion for jewellery making.

Please excuse any spelling mistakes that you might find- even after years living in England, my English is still not perfect. But I promise, my jewellery is :)

Much love,
Sonia
