Jewellery By Design NZ
At Jewellery By Design NZ, we create one-of-a-kind jewellery designed to last a lifetime—and beyond. Every piece is handcrafted in Christchurch, New Zealand, using locally sourced gold and recycled precious metals, combining sustainability with uncompromising quality.
Our gemstones are ethically sourced and individually selected from around the world for their character, rarity, and beauty. No mass production. No shortcuts. Just carefully considered pieces made to mean something.
We specialise in jewellery that tells a story—your story.
Whether it’s a bespoke commission or a meaningful redesign, we work closely with you to create pieces that hold real significance and are built to be worn, loved, and passed down through generations.
Some of the most meaningful pieces we create begin with what you already own. We transform unworn or inherited jewellery into something you’ll actually wear—without losing the sentiment behind it. Whether it’s combining multiple rings into one design, modernising an heirloom, or reworking a piece that no longer feels like you, every project is approached with care, respect, and precision.
We also offer a full range of jewellery repairs and restoration services. From resizing and re-clawing to repairing broken chains and complete ring reshanking, each piece is handled with meticulous attention to detail—restoring both its strength and its beauty so it can be worn with confidence again.
Whether you’re creating something new or bringing an old piece back to life, our focus is always the same: thoughtful design, expert craftsmanship, and jewellery that truly means something.
