Gemelli began amongst the beautiful chaos of being a mum of two girls and everyday life.

I started beading because I needed something that was just for me.

If you'd told me a few years ago that I'd end up completely obsessed with beads, pearls and jewellery making, I would've laughed at you (literally 😂).

I was never the creative person.

What started with a few beads quickly turned into an obsession.

There's always another gemstone I want to buy, a colour combination I want to try, or a piece that's been living rent free in my head for weeks until I finally make it.

I wanted to create the pieces I've been searching for myself.

Jewellery that felt simple, wearable and special.

The kind of pieces that work with a tank and denim, activewear, an oversized blazer or a dress.

Every piece is designed and handmade by me in Sydney using freshwater pearls, natural gemstones and materials I would happily wear myself.

No factories. No mass production. Just me, countless beads, and probably another gemstone order on the way 😂

I never expected this would become such a big part of my life.

Gemelli gave me confidence, creativity, and a side of myself I never knew existed.

My hope is that when you wear a Gemelli piece, it brings you a little of that too.

A little confidence, a little sparkle, and a little reminder of who you are.

I hope you find a little piece of yourself in Gemelli.
