Announcement
Welcome to my Shop!
Step inside and see a fine collection of jewellery that will entice and delight you. Therein you will find something to suit your taste and budget.
VIX is a one woman-owned, small business.
Every piece in my Shop is handcrafted with care, attention to detail and even more importantly, designed to delight you!
As you can see, most of the jewellery I create is made of the finest raw materials and is of a delicate.
I always recommend that gem-set, fine jewellery is removed for sleeping and sports. Friction is the enemy of any and all fine jewellery.
Your jewellery is shipped to you in a pretty keepsake, be it a padded box or plastic case: it is best to store your jewellery safely in these.
Shop with confidence in the knowledge that all the jewellery shown here is designed and handmade by me in my tiny rural studio.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS
***Please remember to include your phone number so I can add it to the Customs Form that is required to be shown on your parcel. Just let me know via the message box.
***Please also note that any Customs/Duties are the BUYER'S responsibility, so do check your country's import regulation before finalizing your purchase.
WHO IS VIX
VIX Jewellery is elegant, contemporary, fine jewellery, designed and made by me here in my workshop using many different techniques. VIX jewellery is designed to match your fashionable wardrobe: be it bohemian and sultry or sleek city chic, minimalist or maximalist, VIX has you covered.
FAIR TRADE
Every one involved in the process of my jewellery is paid fairly. I believe that every business transaction should be a force for good in any community. I would never trade with anyone where I suspect exploitation is taking place. To this end, my stones are only sourced from responsible and fair trade origins. My precious metals are recycled here in my workshop and also purchased from reputable dealers.
GIVING BACK
VIX Jewellery is active in community work by being involved with cat and dog rescue groups. Be confident that proceeds from every single sale is regularly donated to cat and dog rescues.
METALS and GEMSTONES
Everything is made here in my workshop by me. As a lapidary, I cut and polish my own opals, and carve gemstones. My commitment is to using only ethically sourced materials. Most of my pieces are hand-drawn and hand-cut, and each one is made with great attention to detail, down to the handmade chains, hooks and clasps. Please also be mindful that being hand-made objects, my pieces also look handmade - don't expect perfection - as each is made to order and only a tiny percentage is ever cast from moulds. Each piece is of sturdy constructions and checked here before being despatched. The only factory-findings found in my work would be the super-fine cable chains, friction nuts for earrings and certain spring-action clasps.
LASER ENGRAVING
Prices on request.
REPAIRS
Depending on how frequently jewellery is worn, anything that dangles or has movement can wear through.
New earring wires can be purchased for replacement, if necessary.
Rings, bracelets and necklaces worn daily may need similar care and reinforcement.
Pearl and stone necklaces are strung on silk. Traditionally, they are restrung once a year.
Depending on the degree of damage to a piece of jewellery, not all are fixable, due to the availability of stones and materials.
All plated and oxidized jewellery may wear over time, and may be re-plated or re-oxidized.
Jewellery can be washed with mild detergent or can be returned for professional cleaning.
Due to the cost of International Postage, my repair service is offered to local buyers only.
VIX Jewellery has also been shown in exhibitions around Sydney:
2006 Shimmers II at the Washhouse Gallery in Rozelle
2007 Shimmers III at the Washhouse Gallery in Rozelle
2009 Explorations 2009 at the Gaffa Gallery, Surry Hills and Guildford Lane Gallery in Melbourne
Check out my sections where I endeavour to make your selection and shopping experience that much easier. In Weddings, I have rings that will last you a lifetime. If you want something not shown there, just email me and we can discuss new options. I offer a fairly wide price range that I believe will suit most budgets.
All effort is made to show my jewellery in the best light for quality and details. I describe the pieces as faithfully as possible for your benefit and welcome your inquiries and feedback.

5 out of 5 starsI am delighted with the detail and quality of this lovely charm. The artistry, craftsmanship and skill involved in designing and creating this charm is exceptional. What a wonderful jeweler! It is even better than as described and depicted in the listing and exceeded my expectations. The seller dispatched this item quickly and it arrived in record time (actually even faster than deliveries from the UK or USA). The packaging was amazing - a beautiful box with the charm encased in a small cloth packet with a polishing cloth and tied with a lovely bow. Her communication is the best of any seller I've ever dealt with. This is an exceptional seller to support and very highly recommended. Thank you!
