About us

Hey! I'm Chloe, the creator of Luster Jewellery. Meet my trusty sidekick, Guss, the four-legged supervisor of all things sparkly. He's got a knack for photo shoots and a PhD in desk napping – lucky for him, cute privileges.

If you're into cookie-cutter perfection, sorry, wrong place! But, if you crave unique, handmade treasures, pull up a seat and join the quirky side of jewellery.

Our gemstones embrace imperfections because, let's be real, perfection is overrated. Each piece of Luster Jewellery dances to its own beat, just like you.

Luster's Journey

It all started with a vision: I spotted a some hoop earrings with raw crystal beads while browsing Pinterest but couldn't find anything like them in New Zealand. Determined to have something similar and being somewhat of an ambitious crafter at times, I decided to create my own.

What began as a personal project with cheap, pre-made wire hoops soon caught the attention of my friends. They loved the designs but the metals tarnished quickly and made our ears itchy. Realising quality was as important as looks, I embarked on a quest for high-quality metals that wouldn’t compromise on comfort or durability.

With unwavering support from my husband and friends, Luster Jewellery was born. Today, I create unique, handcrafted pieces that blend luxe-boho aesthetics with lasting comfort and durability. Every piece is a testament to the belief that jewellery should not only look good but also feel good, helping women to shine their brightest every day.

What are Luster's values?

Authenticity: Prioritising designs that reflect your individuality rather than following trends that will quickly fade.

Quality and Craftsmanship: Creating pieces made with care and quality materials so you can comfortably wear for years and years.

Sustainability and Ethical Practices: Minimising our waste, setting goals to improve our supply chain, and being mindful of the environmental impact of our business.
