Custom Creations
There are two ways a piece can come to life — beginning with the Earth, or beginning with you.
Some creations start with my own journeys into the wild, gathering stones by hand, leaving offerings in gratitude, and working with them in ceremony. Others begin with a stone, gem, or material you already hold dear — something with a story, a memory, or a meaning you wish to carry forward.
From there, the possibilities open. You may choose a simple hand-polish to reveal the stone’s natural beauty, a macramé design using cord and fibres, a precious metal setting in silver or gold, or a creation from other materials gathered from the Earth. Every stage is completed with care, intention, and respect for the spirit of the piece.
For those who wish to be part of the making, I also offer the opportunity to create your own jewellery alongside me. Together, we can work through each stage — from stone selection and cutting to polishing and setting — so you not only wear your piece, but carry the experience of making it.
Whether the journey begins in the wild or in your hands, I work closely with you to shape something unique — a creation that holds both the energy of the Earth and the story of its wearer, made to walk beside you through life.

The Craftsman
My name is Lawrence Norton, and I create jewellery with purpose.
In a world where jewellery has often become just decoration, I have felt a missing thread that once tied what we wear to meaning, ceremony, and purpose. Throughout history, jewellery was never only about looking good; it was a talisman, a storyteller, a mark of passage, and a bridge between earth and spirit.
My own path has been shaped by walking in the wild places and sitting in sacred ceremony with the Earth — listening to its stories, its silences, and its gifts. Each piece begins with an intention, mindfully gathering stones in the wild to leaving offerings in gratitude and promise of transformation.
Each piece of jewellery is crafted in ceremony with the Earth, utilising intention every step of the way — from cutting and shaping to polishing and setting. This process allows the spirit of the stone and the purpose of the piece to remain alive, carrying its energy into the hands of its wearer.
I believe jewellery is more than appearance. I create each piece to carry energy, hold stories, and walk beside its wearer through life’s moments and transitions. My work is about reclaiming what jewellery once was: an act of meaning, connection, and presence.
