Producers of Australian saltwater Akoya pearls and fine jewelry

Our saltwater Akoya pearls are cultured in the pristine waters of the Southern Ocean, off the coast of Albany, Western Australia. The mild temperatures, abundance of food and pristine water quality provides the perfect oceanic conditions for producing beautiful, lustrous Akoya pearls

A little movement, a little colour.

A 6.2mm Albany Akoya pearl paired with a 4mm natural aquamarine, both floating freely along a fine sterling silver chain.

The independent movement gives this piece a lovely kinetic quality, with the pearl and gemstone shifting together as it's worn.

Finished with an adjustable 16–18 inch sterling silver chain.

Two Albany Akoya pearl pendants, side by side.

One white, one ch*****ne, each with its own natural tone, lustre and character.

They will be on the shelves soon.

A small part of Albany’s local pearling history, set to be worn.

🤍June is pearl month, so it feels like a fitting time for this one.

This Albany Akoya pearl pendant is now available at the Historic Whaling Station gift shop.

Set with a pearl from one of only two Akoya pearl harvests ever produced in Albany’s pristine waters, it is a small and limited piece of local pearling history.

Wishing everyone a very happy New Year.

2025 has been a year of many roles and responsibilities, with pearl work often happening in the quieter moments in between. This piece is a small glimpse of what I’ve been working on behind the scenes.

Looking ahead to 2026, I’m hopeful for more time to bring new work forward and share it more openly.

Thank you for following along, and here’s to a steady, creative year ahead ✨

I was asked to revisit a pendant I made some time ago, but I can never just make the same thing twice. This version grew into its own... two fine chains forming soft loops, with a pearl sitting slightly off-centre.

Handmade, and a one-off once again.

Available soon...

A small restock of classic pearl studs has just landed at the Whaling Station gift shop — available in both 9kt and 18kt gold. Each pair is made from the limited Akoya pearls I have left, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Timeless beauty, but not forever available. ✨
