We create jewellery that connects us.

By collaborating with the world's artisans, we're able to connect aesthetes with jewellery that is respectful of craftsmanship, celebrates natures gemful bounty and is meaningful to our lives.

We believe jewellery connects us to our humanity, our earth and ourselves.

I set out to collaborate with the world's artisans and to connect with people through jewellery that is respectful of craftsmanship,our planet and is meaningful to our lives.

1. We are a boutique brand and only make a few pieces of each design.
This means for you, kindred aesthetes, the ability to connect with a piece of jewellery that is meaningful to you and unique in your circle.
It means for us, that by keeping our studio operations small and focused, we’re able to reduce waste and work in an environmentally friendly way. Every piece is crafted thoughtfully, so nothing goes to waste, and we can keep our environmental impact as low as possible.


2. We love natural gemstones, millions of years in the making, hundreds to choose from.
Swimming in Stones is built around a passion for natural gemstones, to us, they’re all precious (even the ones classified semi precious). There isn’t an exhaustive pool of natural gemstones, each stone has formed over millions of years within our Earth, they are a connection to our planet worn close to the skin.
Gemstones distinctiveness, with unique inclusions, patterns, and colour variations that make each one-of-a-kind providing endless design possibilities. Their durability, value, size and appeal make them not only wonderful heirlooms, but personal talismans able to hold lifelong significance.
Spiritual properties are subjective and vary across different belief systems and cultures. But one thing is for certain though, humanity has revered gemstones through the ages. Each piece is as unique as its custodian.

3. Sixth generation Artisans create our original designs in our small dedicated studio in Jaipur
Whilst our custom designs are created in the heart of Sydney, our mission is to give Artisans meaningful work so we incorporate traditional techniques and focus on beautiful, handmade designs. Each piece is as unique as its makers, as up to ten Artisans are employed on any one piece. We are creating opportunities for our Artisans to remain gainfully employed today, but proudly support their desires to keep their heritage alive for future generations.

4. We’re also ocean lovers, $1 from every piece sold goes to the Australian Marine Conservation Society.
Our majestic oceans, bold coral reefs are not only a source of design inspiration but bring a sense of inner peace, freedom and clarity.

5. Our practical and sustainable packaging is the Scuba Sac, it’s Neoprene practical & pretty
Made in Australia, it can be used for any number of purposes in future. It serve to protect your jewels in shipping meaning we don’t require any plastic bubble wrap

6. We choose carbon neutral Global Shipping and partner with Sendle.
It is 100% Carbon Neutral footprint with completely compostable packaging.

Every stone and every design is created to inspire you to connect. The Humanity Collection is about connecting to community, for me it has been connecting talented artisans with meaningful work. In 2020 during Covid we were able to sustain 10 artisans & their families thanks to all the beautiful support for this collection. Artisans in our bespoke studio in Jaipur still receive a bonus from any piece purchased from this collection.
