Handcrafted in Tauranga, New Zealand

Wear your story.

LUA is named for the moon — jewellery made slowly, by hand, from natural stones and ethically sourced materials. Each piece is the only one of its kind. When it finds its person, it's retired for good.

From the studio

A few just made. Once one sells, that design is gone for good.

Why one-of-one

Made once. Sold once.
Never again.

Every LUA piece begins with a single one-off mix of stone, shell and vintage bead. We don't batch and we don't restock — so the piece you choose is the only one there'll ever be.

  1. 01

    Sourced — real stone, shell & vintage beads, gathered one handful at a time.

  2. 02

    Made — shaped by hand at the bench in Tauranga, a single piece, never a pattern.

  3. 03

    Retired — it sells, it's gone. No copy ever follows it.

Meet the maker

Every piece passes through one pair of hands.

Every LUA piece is made by hand at a small bench by a window in Tauranga — no machines, no production line. Just stone, thread, light, and the time it takes to get a thing right.

One maker. One bench. One piece at a time.

Love Notes

Words from the people who wear LUA

Every piece is one of one. When it finds its person, sometimes they write — and with their blessing, those notes live here. We don't write our own.

The first Love Notes are on their way.

As pieces find their people, the notes they send back will appear here — unedited and real.

Letters by moonlight

First to see tonight's one-of-ones

Because every piece is one of one, letter readers often see it first — and sometimes it's claimed before it reaches the shop.

An occasional letter — only when new pieces leave the studio. No discounts, no noise.
