Why Choose Lovely Oxford: Memorial Jewellery Crafted with Love and Meaning

At Lovely Oxford, I believe that jewellery is far more than just an accessory. It is a deeply personal and meaningful way to honour a loved one and carry their memory with you.

My Story: A Journey of Love and Loss

My journey with memorial jewellery began from a place of loss. I lost my dad to a brain aneurysm in my twenties and my mum to breast cancer in my thirties. I know first-hand the pain of losing someone close and the comfort that a tangible keepsake can bring.

During my own healing journey, I created keepsakes using my parents' favourite pieces of clothing and their signatures. What started as a personal way to keep them close grew into a mission to help others honour their own loved ones with meaningful, handcrafted jewellery.

I’ve also experienced the loss of two beloved dogs during my teenage years, so I understand how pets become part of the family. Now, as I raise my Springer Spaniel puppy, Lucy, I cherish my past pets' memories even more. That’s why my heart is fully invested in creating keepsakes that honour both people and animals alike.

Why Families Trust Lovely Oxford

💎 Handcrafted with Care in South Oxfordshire

Every piece of jewellery is individually handcrafted in my home studio in South Oxfordshire. This means no two pieces are ever the same. I use only the finest materials to ensure that each keepsake lasts a lifetime:

  • Sterling silver, 9k solid gold, and gold-filled settings
  • Lab-created opals and ethically sourced crystals from UK suppliers
  • Sustainably hand-picked natural flowers

Unlike mass-produced jewellery, each item is made with intention and care because I know how important it is to you. Your jewellery is a tribute to someone special, and I pour all my heart into crafting it.

🕊️ A Personal & Compassionate Experience

Creating memorial jewellery is an emotional journey, and I am here to offer support every step of the way. My process is designed to be gentle, transparent, and personalised:

  • Kind and understanding communication throughout the process
  • Careful handling of ashes, hair, or keepsakes with the utmost respect
  • Bespoke design choices to ensure your piece is as unique as your loved one

Many of my customers tell me that receiving their jewellery feels like a warm embrace—a beautiful reminder that their loved one is still with them every day.

"I was in tears when I received my necklace. It’s absolutely stunning, and I feel like my dad is with me every day. Thank you for creating something so special." – Emily, UK

🌿 Ethical & Sustainable Craftsmanship

Sustainability is at the heart of my business. I prioritise ethical and eco-friendly practices, including:

  • Partnering with trusted UK suppliers for responsibly sourced materials
  • Using eco-friendly packaging to minimise environmental impact
  • Hand-picking flowers mindfully to protect nature and the bees

Each piece arrives in a thoughtfully designed gift box, ready for gifting or safekeeping.

✨ Custom Colours & Unique Designs

Your keepsake should reflect the memory it holds. That’s why I offer a variety of customisation options:

  • Choose your colour – Deep royal blue, soft pastels, or a custom blend
  • Select your metal – Sterling silver, 9k solid gold, gold-filled, or stainless steel
  • Add special elements – Shimmer, crushed opals, or natural flowers
  • Personal engravings – Names, dates, or meaningful messages

Each piece is designed with love, care, and attention to detail to ensure your precious memory is beautifully preserved.
