WELCOME TO EARTH, WIND & JEWELLERY

I'm Hayley -

the heart and hands behind each piece

My jewellery journey began whilst living in Ecuador in 2011. There I met a beautiful soul named Gisela, who took me under her wing and taught me the artisanal ways of Macrame and Metal work. I found the intricate designs incredibly therapeutic, and went on to travel the coast of South America selling my handmade treasures along the way.

When I arrived in Ecuador my Spanish was minimal. I was fortunate to meet a lovely bunch of people who spoke the universal language of love and kindly accepted my attempts to communicate and embrace their culture, with open arms. I left SA seven months later, with a full heart and a good grasp of Spanish.

SOUTH AMERICA, IBIZA, SUSSEX.

Next came Ibiza, where I sold macramé pieces by the sea. Sunday sunsets at Benirrás beach became a regular rhythm in my life.

After the birth of my first daughter, I returned to the UK and began studying silversmithing in Brighton — under the guidance of goldsmith and creative genius, Chris Hawkins. His teachings deepened my love for precious metals and ignited a new chapter in my craft.

Over the next five years, I raised my two daughters while continuing to create through commissions — slowly building my skills, confidence, and style.

Then the pandemic hit in 2020, bringing with it a pause — a meaningful one. We relocated back to Sussex, and for the past few years, I stepped away from jewellery to help my partner build his business and support our family in a new way. But now, with tools back in hand and a freshly forged workbench, I’m picking up where I left off — with renewed focus and creative energy.

Today, I handcraft limited-edition sustainable jewellery collections, made from upcycled silver and gold, right here in Sussex. Each piece is inspired by nature, memory, and meaning — made slowly, ethically, and with intention.
