Steph Lusted has been creating highly original, finely crafted pieces of Jewellery Adornment and Objets d’Art for the past 21 years. Founded in 1998 with the idea that Jewellery Adornment is an Artform, all her work is meticulously hand carved and crafted by her own hands to ensure each piece has the Steph Lusted Jewellery twist of uniqueness, quality and character of miniature sculpture. Steph Lu

Her own personal Showroom opened on May 1st 2015 in the heart of Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand.

“I strive to create unique designs of quality Jewellery Adornment and Objets d' Art. My hope is that they eventually become family heirlooms or antique keepsakes for future generations to enjoy.”

Moonlight Sea Star - Brooch. On display as part of my current exhibition, Enchanted Waters. Also available to view online: www.stephlustedjewellery.com

This brooch is hand fabricated from Sterling Silver sheet using the ancient technique of repoussé with hammer and tool to create a concave, organic form. This makes the brooch extremely light in weight, making it easy to wear on a variety of fabrics.
The tactile texture on the front facing side of the brooch is created by hand tools to mimic the actual skin of the sea star.

This one of a kind piece features a blue sheen moonstone set in gold, with yellow gold balls further decorating the tentacles.

With the Tide - Longfin Eel/Tuna Brooch
Currently on display as part of my current exhibition Enchanted Waters. On show until 30th June.

I have made a small number of Longfin Eel/Tuna brooches as part of this exhibition. Super lightweight to wear each piece has been hand fabricated from Sterling Silver sheet using the ancient technique of repoussé, each has its own unique character.

Tip: When wearing brooches on finer materials, remember to either stitch the pin over and under the fabric multiple times for a sturdier position, or thread the pin through the undergarment.

Thanks to , who captured this image from my window display 😀

What's inside? Swipe to reveal...
I have fond memories from my childhood of beachcombing the local foreshore and sand dunes for treasure. The treasure in my mind were these pure white spiral shells that stood out against the dark, rough driftwood. I later learned these incredible pieces of nature did infact belong to the body of a small squid, the Rams horn squid, and these shell's were what created their buoyancy.
They still fascinate me today, and each time I find one, I still feel that excitement of finding treasure... :-)

This Objet d'Art consists of a hinged shell crafted in Sterling Silver supported by three solid Sterling Silver fish. By lifting the gold spiral k**b, the hinged shell can be opened to reveal a Rams Horn Shell Pendant carved from Mother of Pearl Shell and suspended from a gold wheat chain. This necklace can be removed and worn when desired.
