Adorn your story, sustainably.
Welcome to Jess Blak, a renowned Australian silversmith studio where traditional craftsmanship and ethical practices meet contemporary design. Our passion is creating unique, handcrafted jewelry pieces that not only adorn the body but also tell a story. Inspired by the textures and tales of ruins and shipwrecks, our designs embody the beauty of the unpredictable and the unexpected.
Our Story
As a collector and aesthete, Jess Blak thrives in the pleasures of creating an ideal inventory of wearable art that enhances one's self-image. With a Bachelor of Fine Art from the Queensland College of Art, Jess has mastered traditional techniques and has been self-taught, driven by a passion for translating clients' desires into reality. Our approach balances repetition and authenticity, drawing inspiration from the juxtaposition of nature and the built environment.
Services
At Jess Blak, we offer bespoke jewelry design services that cater to individuals with an appreciation for contemporary craftsmanship and sustainable practices. Our bespoke process begins with a personalized consultation, where we take the time to understand your style, preferences, and lifestyle. We then collaborate with you to bring your vision to life, crafting a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your personality and story. Our bespoke pieces are crafted using the finest materials, sourced locally whenever possible, and executed with exceptional attention to detail.
We also offer repair and alteration services for your existing jewelry, using traditional and non-traditional techniques to restore your treasured pieces to their former glory.
Our Ethos
At Jess Blak, we are committed to responsible sourcing of materials, supporting local miners and businesses, and promoting sustainability in the jewelry industry. We believe that beauty and ethics go hand-in-hand, which is why we use recycled gold and silver, as well as ethically sourced gemstones in our designs. Our aim is to create timeless, unique pieces that not only adorn the body but also tell a story of the past, present, and future.
Our Community
We are proud to be part of a community that celebrates artisans who create sustainably with devotion to regenerative craft. We partner with like-minded stockists, such as Fallow and Practice Studio, who share our values and passion for Slow Fashion.
