FAQs

Why can’t I buy more than one unit of each product?

I tend to move on to new ideas quickly and don’t usually make the same design multiple times. Because of that, each piece is only made in very small quantities - often just one or two.

Can I request a custom design or adjust a piece?

At this time, I do not offer custom designs or alterations to existing pieces. All items, including rings, are sold as shown — please select your ring size carefully when ordering.

Do you ship internationally?

No, I currently ship within New Zealand only. All orders are carefully packaged to arrive safely, and local shipping times usually take 2–5 business days.

Are your pieces handmade?

Yes! Each piece is carefully handmade, which means every item is unique. Slight variations in colour or design are part of what makes your jewellery special. This is also the reason I require at least a few days in advance for customised size and orders. Because I am also working full-time at the moment!

What materials do you use?

I use a variety of quality beads and materials, including Miyuki glass beads, freshwater pearls, natural stones, and metal components. Specific materials may vary by design — check individual product descriptions for details.

How should I care for my jewellery?

To keep your jewellery looking its best, avoid contact with water, perfumes, lotions, and any other chemicals — and please do not shower while wearing it. Do not pull or stretch and please remove them before sleep and exercise. Many pieces are made using very fine stitching and delicate threads. Therefore, store your pieces in a dry place and handle them gently to prevent damage.

Do you have a wider variety of jewellery?

Yes! I create a wide range of beaded jewellery, and all of it is available at the local markets I attend. If you’d like to see the full collection and try pieces in person, come visit me at one of my upcoming market events — I’d love to meet you!
