OUR COMMUNITY of
INDEPENDENT MAKERS

Finematter was founded with the ambition to help independent jewellery designers digitise and scale. From local studios across the world, they drive the design and creative processes of their marvellous and contemporary jewellery pieces. Discover amazing upcoming talents and household names, all exploring and pushing the boundaries of jewellery design. We give you the best of both worlds: beautiful, visionary and handcrafted pieces, made locally.

That way you can shop designers who'll ship your piece directly from their studio, while at the same time getting to explore and wear styles from independent designers with roots in many different places. We believe their stories are part of what makes them unique – just like a piece of jewellery.

Me & Audrey's exclusive jewellery is inspired by Audrey Hepburn's classic and pure style. Her pieces are handcrafted in Copenhagen and specialises in gold, diamonds, silver and pearls – you can see this evidently throughout the collection and it shows how a distinguished style never goes out of fashion.

Based in Brighton UK, Martine is another home-grown talent specialising in beautiful handmade jewellery using gems, silver, gold and platinum. She is a trained goldsmith and has worked with many well renowned peers in the industry. Her delicate pieces are inspired by ancient jewellery designs and are the perfect everyday addition to add to your jewellery box.

Wing Yau, the maker behind WWAKE is a trained sculptor, pioneering a new take on jewellery and uses beautiful stones to create delicate, dreamy pieces. She is known for her signature shapes, modern designs and experimental edge, using a combination of ethically sourced opals and diamonds. A cult New York based brand who rethinks traditional structures.

Based in Copenhagen, Jo Riis-Hansen handcrafts everything in her studio in the center of the city. For Finematter, she's created an exclusive collection called Nebula. It's a collection of opposites, a merge of simple shapes with the extravagant. The pieces are a celebration of unity and love. But also, a reflection on the fact that you cannot enjoy the light if you don’t know the dark.

Located in New York City, Satomi Kawakita appreciation of the mystique and unlimited beauty in the natural forms of gems, minerals and metals, is evident in the former professional diamond setter's jewellery. In her studio, she combines impeccable craftsmanship with a unique sense of beauty resulting in jewellery true to Satomi’s vision of creating meaningful and timeless pieces.

For Jean Prounis, there was only ever one colour of gold; the buttery yellow that we know from visiting museum exhibitions of ancient times. From Greco-Roman to Pre-Colombian, her vivid creations encompass ideas from civilisations long lost. In an imaginary conversation with her grandfather, Jean’s jewellery speaks to times of both yesterday and tomorrow, transcending time and honouring the grounding and protective powers of gold. Located in New York City, with everything handmade in the city, Jean's recognised for her ethical sourcing practices and her use of 22k gold.

London-based Jessie Thomas learned her craft from her father, master goldsmith David Thomas, who she still works alongside in the workshop that she practically grew up in. A high level of craftsmanship, complicated technicality and wearability is key in creating the incredible pieces that transcends trends, exhibiting instead an aesthetics of something beautiful yet simple. Everything is handcrafted by the Thomases and often evolves organically during their creation.
