A rock pool rendered in oxidised sterling silver — garnet, freshwater pearl, and moissanite set together in a hand-finished cluster that carries the texture of something found rather than made.

Made in Louise Douglas's Nelson studio using the lost wax casting technique, the pendant surface is irregular and organic, its form echoing the encrusted quality of stone pulled from the sea. A 5mm round garnet sits at the centre, its deep red drawing the eye; a freshwater pearl nestles beside it, and two 2mm moissanites catch the light from the edges of the setting. The pendant hangs on an oxidised sterling silver chain, its dark antique finish grounding the warmth of the stones above.

Small in scale, considered in every detail.

ABOUT the MAKER

Louise Douglas

Louise Douglas works from her studio in Nelson, New Zealand, casting jewellery directly from the natural world — seashells, twigs, leaves, found objects — and from a deep affection for the particular and the remembered. Her pieces are small-batch, made by hand using the lost wax casting technique, and finished in oxidised sterling silver, solid gold, and freshwater pearl. The collection spans botanical drop earrings and delicate necklaces through to bangles and rings — each piece rooted in the same making process, the same sensibility. There is nothing generic in Louise's work. Every form has a source: something picked up on a walk, something held onto. The jewellery carries that quality with it.
