At the helm is Naomi, the talented jeweller whose dedication transforms dreams into exquisite forever jewels, each piece imbued with personal stories and ethical values. Here, the journey of creating bespoke jewellery is as magical as the final piece itself.
The Beginning: Consultation and Inspiration
Every bespoke journey at Found Treasure Jewellery begins with a warm, in-depth consultation with Naomi. This initial meeting is an opportunity for clients to share their inspirations, dreams, and desires. Whether it’s a cherished memory, a sketch, or a photograph, Naomi listens with an artist’s ear and a compassionate heart. Together, they explore the details of the design, discussing preferred metals, gemstones, and the unique style that will capture the client’s essence.
Bringing Dreams to Life: Concept and Creation
With the seeds of inspiration planted, Naomi moves into the design phase. Here, the magic of creation begins. Combining traditional hand-drawn sketches with modern computer-aided design (CAD) software, Naomi crafts detailed representations of the envisioned piece. This collaborative process invites clients to provide feedback at every step, ensuring the final design is a perfect reflection of their dreams.
Ethical Beauty: Commitment to Sustainability
At Found Treasure Jewellery, the commitment to ethical practices is woven into the fabric of each piece.

This dedication to sustainability not only enhances the beauty of the jewellery but also infuses each piece with a deeper, more meaningful value. Clients can wear their bespoke creations with pride, knowing they are crafted with care for both people and the planet.
The Art of Crafting: Fabrication and Setting
With the design finalised, Naomi’s skilled hands bring the piece to life. The fabrication process is a dance of precision and artistry, where each component is handcrafted with love and attention to detail. Setting the gemstones is a particularly delicate and beautiful process, ensuring that each stone shines with its own unique brilliance. Throughout this phase, clients are kept enchanted with updates, adding to the excitement and anticipation.
The Final Flourish: Polishing and Presentation
As the journey nears its end, Naomi adds the final touches that transform the piece into a masterpiece. Polishing, engraving, and any additional enhancements are meticulously applied, ensuring the jewellery is flawless. Each bespoke piece undergoes a thorough inspection to meet the high standards of Found Treasure Jewellery.
