A childhood spent on Earth’s edge exploring the rugged beauty of Tasmania’s remote Tasman Peninsula, Nicky Burles’s affinity with precious objects started early.

After honing his craft under the tutelage of jewellers in Australia and abroad, Nicky now has over two decades of experience designing and hand-making bespoke creations.

Paying homage to jewellery from the Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco eras, his work elevates old-world aesthetics and techniques while showcasing modern boldness.

“A true piece of jewellery has a certain level of mystery and intrigue; it invites you in.”

The exceptional quality of Nicky’s intricate creations is testament to his respect and love of purposefully hand-crafted jewellery; a thoughtful and rare commodity in a largely mass-produced market.

Nicky’s Sydney studio is a treasure trove of rare and precious colourful stones waiting to be incorporated into unforgettable jewellery designed and made to stand the test of time.

“I have to make something beautiful and with true meaning. In an ever-accelerating world, I want people to take away something special that is just for them.”
