CONTEMPORARY HANDCRAFTED JEWELLERY

I create distinctive handmade jewellery shaped by bold forms, natural textures and thoughtful craftsmanship — unique pieces made to be worn and treasured.

NEW COLLECTIONS

SEA PEBBLE STUDS
£30.00

Inspired by the soft shapes and textures found along the shoreline, these sterling silver Sea Pebble Studs are handmade in my Nottingham studio. No two pairs are ever the same, giving each set its own quiet character and charm. Simple, tactile and easy to wear every day.

All of my jewellery is made to order and crafted entirely by hand using traditional techniques, so the final piece may vary slightly from the images shown. No two items are ever exactly the same, which is part of the charm of a truly handmade design. Please see full T&Cs for more information.

STERLING SILVER CUFF
£190.00

A solid 4 mm square-profile cuff, handcrafted in sterling silver using traditional techniques with a contemporary edge. It comes with my textured silver finish as standard, but if you’d like a different look just drop me a message and I’ll tailor it for you. Beautiful worn on its own or stacked with your favourite bangles.

SHIELD RING
£110.00

Handmade in sterling silver, the Shield Ring is a true statement piece with a surprisingly comfortable fit. The band is slim around the finger, giving you that bold, sculptural look without the weight. Each ring is made to order in your chosen size — simply add your ring size when you place your order.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Emma Hender, the jewellery designer and maker behind these creations. Every piece is handmade in my Nottingham studio using the traditional skills and techniques of jewellery-making I learnt early on in my career – a craft and set of values I treasure today. In my work I combine these techniques with contemporary finishes to create the ready-to-wear and bespoke pieces in my collections.

I completed my Bachelor of Arts degree in textiles and surface design, which is something that heavily influences my work. My fascination with shape and texture is always inspiring me and I find constant inspiration from the places I go and the people I meet. Whether it’s the coral reef I have seen snorkeling or the texture of the bark on a tree – even the smallest of things can spark an idea. 

My belief is that every piece of jewellery is special and has its own story. That’s one of the reasons why I love working with clients to make their ideas a reality, creating something that’s personal and meaningful. If you would like to talk to me about having your own special piece of jewellery designed and made for you, then please get in touch.
