"Born of the seabed, picked from the shoreline... inspiration for adornment"
Louise's organic aesthetic is borne from her upbringing in nature’s surroundings. Her designs express memories of a childhood spent exploring the native forest and rugged seaside. Louise relishes in the process of bringing small objects into the world and sending them out to evoke curiosity and beauty. Starting her first jewellery company at age 18, Louise sold work to design stores in her home country of New Zealand. She then went on to design collections in the United States for private label and runway at large fashion jewellery houses in New York City. Her work has been sold to high-end department stores and exclusive boutiques throughout Japan, the US and NZ. Now settled back in New Zealand, Louise creates her collection under her own label in the vibrant and beautiful city of Nelson. Louise takes pride in the high quality of her components and the hand finishing of all her pieces.
