As a child, I loved playing with my mother’s jewellery, collected on her travels around the world. I instinctively stacked three or four chunky pieces together, long before layering became a trend.

As I grew older, my interests turned towards interiors and gardening, and I developed a deep appreciation for natural balance, texture and flow in the world around me.

Years later, while working as a legal advocate, I stumbled across a make your own necklace workshop at a music festival, of all places. I was immediately captivated by the slow, transformative process of silversmithing. What began as a passing curiosity soon became an all-consuming passion, eventually leading to the creation of Ted & Tallulah.

Very quickly, Ted & Tallulah became much more than a jewellery brand. It marked the beginning of a new chapter, reconnecting me with a part of myself that had somehow been lost amid the chaos of everyday life.
