We love jewellery company Ernest and Joe‘s dainty designs and pretty pieces almost as much as we love the fact that they’re all handmade in a cosy back shed in Geelong, Victoria, by mother and daughter duo Sally and Mia. This crafty pair use 100% recycled Australian sterling silver, and their products are entirely hand-cut, hand-soldered and hand-filed – all over a steady supply of tea and cake. You can choose from a stunning selection of necklaces, rings, earrings and brooches that feature cute and quirky details, such as engraved banners and ID tags, heart shapes and 3D pyramids. While Sally and Mia design all their pieces, they’re happy to work with you on custom orders if you drop them an email. Visit their Facebook page to see their latest creations!
