1) Bina Earrings & Bina Ring (Azurite)

Our eye-catching Bina earrings capitalise on the trend of the statement stud earring, perfectly complemented by the Bina ring. Handmade by a small artisan co-operative in India, the pieces offer a contemporary take on
traditional handcrafted jewellery techniques. The original design and unique patterns in the azurite combine with hand-craftsmanship to bring individuality to your wardrobe; each ring and earring is unique.

The use of azurite, besides its gorgeous colour and unique pattern, also harnesses the healing power of gemstones. Referred to as the ‘stone of heaven’, azurite is said to strengthen intuition and harness spiritual power through the activation of the third eye chakra. This aids the reach of a higher consciousness, while also stimulating intellect and enhancing creativity. In fact, it could be helpful when studying, helping you retain information. It also resonates with the throat chakra, stimulating communication.

 2) Idika Earrings & Idika Ring - Dalmatian Jasper

Our Idika earrings and ring are handcrafted by artisans in Jaipur, India. The ethically sourced, dalmatian jasper gemstones provide unique patterns that provide a striking addition to any outfit! Combining black, white and rust orange colours this subtle piece will work well individually or as a part of a layered look. It makes the perfect one-of-a-kind gift.


Dalmatian jasper is known for its grounding energy, promoting close relationships and devotion to others. It also encourages optimism and a positive outlook on life. As you may have guessed, the name of the stone came from the resemblance to the coat of the lovely dalmatian dog! The black spots of the tourmaline are said to bring good luck and happiness to those who wear it.

5) Myra Earrings & Myra Bracelet - Chalcedony 

The Myra earrings are the perfect marriage of classic and contemporary, utilising a timeless silhouette that complements a growing trend towards natural stone and organic shapes. The perfect finishing for evening attire, or to add  statement to your outfit, the use of semi-precious chalcedony gemstones set in gold vermeil plating ensures durability and thus sustainability.


The chalcedony gemstone improves emotional balance, promoting feelings of benevolence and generosity in the wearer and absorbing negative energy. It is known to bring the mind, body, emotions and spirit into harmony, alleviating hostility or self-doubt. Pink chalcedony deepens one’s own positive personal traits helping to achieve ambition, while white chalcedony has a soothing effect on the psyche, rehabilitating the mind from life’s stresses.
