My latest collection NEPTUNE includes three series: Seagrass Meadows, Sea Grapes and Lichen. Each is informed by the rich landscapes of Australia’s shorelines and the marine flora that thrives there. Particular inspiration has been drawn from the environments of the South Coast of NSW, from the kaleidoscopic jewel tones and bright golden sands of Jervis Bay—a place I have been visiting since childhood.

The entire NEPTUNE collection is handcrafted with 18ct yellow gold in organic forms and set with Australian gemstones — turquoise, zircon, chrysoprase, diamonds and sapphires — that come from remote corners of the country. Find out what inspired the second story, Seagrass Meadows below.

Seagrass Meadows features elongated shapes and baguette stones, inspired by blades of seagrass in underwater meadows. The movement of the earrings echoes their gentle sway, while gemstones trace curves like ocean currents.

Pairings of dark and light sapphires with diamonds and turquoise cabochons reflect the journey of moving underwater, swimming through cool waters, dappled light and shade on the sea meadow floor. Seagrass Meadows explores the raw beauty of these ocean prairies: mysterious and magnificent.
