Hello!

It’s just me here, tucked away in
Worcestershire, where I spend my days melting, moulding, making,
modelling, and mailing every piece of jewellery by hand (I know in the UK we say 'posting' but I needed
another 'M' word!!) I work mainly with solid
recycled gold but also silver and platinum, breathing new life into
precious metals to create something meaningful, lasting, and entirely unique.

In a world full of fast fashion and mass
production, finding something handmade — truly handmade — feels rare. That’s
exactly why I started making jewellery and setting up a business in my own name
'Sian Elizabeth Hughes Jewelley.' That was in 2006 and nearly 20
years later I have built a wealth of experience and knowledge in precious metal
jewellery that I use and share everyday.

Inspired by Nature and Slow Living

Every collection begins with a walk outdoors
or a quiet moment: the way sunlight dances across the sand, the texture of bark
under your fingertips, the simple magic of slowing down.

My collections — The Simple Life, Woodland Walk, and Golden Sands — are
all about celebrating that connection to nature and embracing a slower, more
mindful way of living.

I believe jewellery should be more than just
beautiful — it should feel personal, timeless, and full of
quiet stories. Pieces you’ll wear every day and treasure forever.

A One-Woman Workshop

From the moment I melt down the gold to the
final polish, it’s all done by my own two hands. No factories, no big teams —
just me, a bit of recycled gold, a few trusted tools, and a whole lot of love
for what I do.

When you order from me, you’re not just buying
jewellery. You’re supporting an independent maker, a slower process, and a
story that continues with you.

Jewellery with Heart (and Craft)

Choosing handmade isn’t just about the result
— it’s about the journey.

It’s the tiny imperfections that make every piece one-of-a-kind. It’s the
knowledge that your ring, necklace, or earrings started life as molten gold and
was carefully crafted, not churned out by machines.

If you’re looking for jewellery that feels a
little more real — crafted slowly, thoughtfully, and sustainably — then
welcome.

You’re in the right place!

How did I get into jewellery?

I have always been involved in the jewellery
whether making and selling my work in the V&A gallery museum shop or
teaching young mums silver fingerprint jewellery.

 My first memory of jewellery is helping
my mum and godmother sell beaded earrings they had made at a car boot sale
in the 1990’s. I remember it as wildly successful but my mum has since said
they didn’t sell anything! 

 I made my first piece of silver
jewellery at 16 and then I went to uni at The School of Jewellery in
Birmingham.

What's my favourite material?

 Working in gold is my favourite as there
are so many different tones and colours according to the carat of the gold. I
love making heavily textured gold rings, the more texture the better. I also
enjoy making really simple components and hammering them to bring the design to
life.

Why do I love making jewellery?

Making jewellery from scratch gives me an
immense sense of joy and creative freedom. Using my hands everyday to make
jewellery is part of a mindful approach to life.

What was my favourite jewellery project?

 My favourite ever project was in 2020
when I started making a personalised star necklace and donating all the profits
to the charity Mummy’s star. Mummy's Star are a charity
providing cancer support in or around pregnancy. Helping families through
birth, loss and with the beyond and have helped my own family. I’ve raised over
£3000 for the charity and I know every penny will benefit a family directly.

How do I design my jewellery?

Whenever I design or make anything new, I
always go through all emotions in all extremes. I believe the more creative I
am on a day-to-day basis the more creative I will become. I must have 10-20
different designs on the go at once in various stages of completion.

Ultimately I’m just a jeweller making solid recycled gold pieces by hand, inspired by nature and a slower way of living.

Every piece is carefully melted, made and finished by me — no mass production, just proper craft.
