About

‘RSJ is jewellery for those who refuse the ordinary. Always textured, one-of-a-kind and unconventional.’

I’m Rachel! An independent jeweller, obsessive maker, and ex-arts festival manager, currently residing in the wilds of East Sussex.

Fueled by music, myth and caffeine, I make strange relics from my solar-powered studio, usually to a soundtrack of wailing prog guitars or electronic music. When I’m not carving wax, gardening or researching the history of witchcraft, I’m looking after my daughter, who has complex medical needs.

After her birth, I spent months in hospital learning hands-on care from nurses and doctors. That experience rewired how I think about craft and precision, it made me want to use my hands differently. Once home and settled I began a short jewellery course in Brighton and I’ve been making ever since…

Unrepeatable pieces made with instinct, texture, and defiance.

My work leans toward the dramatic and the abstract, with a touch of Scandinavian Brutalism and a hint of folklore and psychedelia. I love to create irregularity - so angular shapes combined with organic ones, unique salt and pepper diamonds, stones with unusual inclusions and cosmic colours are really my bag. Each piece is unrepeatable, forged to feel like it found you, not the other way around.

Working in wax, I use a mixture of techniques and tools to create one-off pieces often incorporating stones, which I set by hand after pieces have been cast in metal. Everything I produce is unique and one-of-a-kind - so that you will be the only person who has one like it!

Photography is also a part of my practice. I take all the product photographs you see, sometimes with flowers grown in my garden. Choosing and drying the flowers has become a ritual and I use them to complement the texture in the pieces, as a natural and spiritual backdrop.
