Manufacturing Jewellers

Gina Botham - Owner

My love affair with Jewellery began as a teenager where I worked for Noel Herd - A Blenheim Jeweller. Playing in the workshop in my lunch breaks, then being asked to help in the workshop, cemented in a passion for the creative process of Jewellery making.

Amelia Pask

Coming from a long line of Family history in Jewellery, it was inevitable Amelia was going to be involved in the trade, in some way or another. Also taught by Noel Herd, Amelia has an eye for design and loves the creative challenges that working in the Jewellery trade brings.

Aiden Smith

Our extremely talented apprentice Aiden started with us at the end of 2021. After completing an introduction to Jewellery course, Aiden dipped his toe in the Jewellery trade working as a bench hand with Jens Hansen in Nelson for 2 years.
