About

Shóna Hanley is a designer and maker specialising in handcrafted fine jewellery, created using the traditional lost wax casting method. Working from her studio in Ireland, Shóna combines precision, artistry, and thoughtful design to produce one-of-a-kind pieces in silver and gold.

With a background in both creative and technical disciplines, Shóna brings a considered approach to her work — from hand-carving each wax model to overseeing every step of the casting and finishing process. Her jewellery is designed to be worn, valued, and eventually passed on — crafted with longevity, connection, and detail in mind.

The studio’s focus is on timeless, meaningful pieces that stand apart from trends. Whether it’s a bespoke commission or a limited-edition design, each piece reflects a balance of traditional craftsmanship and modern simplicity.

Shóna offers an alternative to mass-produced jewellery — a slower, more intentional process that puts quality, individuality, and authenticity first. Using only recycled metals, each wax carved piece is individual to you - it will never be repeated.
