ABOUT
In the Wrong Studio's jewellery is designed and created on the Northen Beaches, Sydney Australia.
In 2020, I wanted to make things because jewellery felt boring. Safe. Repetitive. I couldn’t find pieces that reflected what I wanted to wear - objects with weight, texture, and a sense of individuality. So I decided to learn how to make them myself.
I began by teaching myself to create rings through sand casting. The process was raw and unpredictable, and that was the point. Sand casting gave me rough edges, organic forms, and surfaces shaped by chance rather than control. It taught me to let go of perfection, to work with failure, and to embrace the marks left behind by heat, pressure, and time.
As life shifted, the studio fell quiet for a while. Creativity slowed - not from lack of desire, but from the weight of everything else that had to be carried. Still, the work never left. It waited.
Today, In the Wrong Studio is a return. A more deliberate practice rooted in recycled precious metals and forms that honour wear, imperfection, and resilience. Each piece carries evidence of process - not as flaws, but as proof of making.
Looking forward, the studio isn’t chasing trends or polish. It’s moving toward deeper experimentation, bolder forms, and techniques that push against refinement. Objects made to be worn hard, marked over time, and kept - small artifacts of persistence.
This is work made outside the rules, in imperfect conditions, and often against the grain - and that’s exactly where it belongs.
