Millie's Objects
This collection is a study of things adjacent to jewellery, objects that carry the same intimacy, ritual, and symbolism but live just outside the frame of what we traditionally call adornment. Each piece is connected by that tension: wearable versus functional, object versus ornament, utility versus art.

About the Stones
This line of objects sit next to jewellery but aren’t exactly jewellery. Throughout history people have turned knives, sunglasses, cutlery, silverware, brooches, medallions, so many everyday objects, into things of beauty. This collection is my way of nodding to that history and pushing myself technically.
These pieces have been brewing for a while and are a continuation of my work in jewellery, using some of my most loved stones. You’ll see a scattering of Aussie opals and sapphires throughout all the pieces, set side by side with diamonds, topaz and pearls.
