Handmade Silver Jewellery. Designed with love by Michelle Giles.
Welcome to Michelle Giles Jewellery.
Nestled in the heart of Bournemouth, Dorset, my journey into silversmithing began at evening classes at Poole College in 2010. What started as a cherished hobby, soon became a creative outlet that brought me joy and mindfulness. After a brief hiatus to have my daughter, I launched Michelle Giles Jewellery in 2016 as a side hustle alongside my career. Since then, it has grown into a thriving venture that I’m proud to share with you.
Each piece is handcrafted in my home studio using a blend of traditional silversmithing and the more modern technique of silver clay. I often incorporate semi-precious stones, adding colour and character to my designs. My work is inspired by texture, nature and the quiet elegance of silver itself. I love exploring the contrast between organic forms and clean lines, crafting jewellery that feels timeless, tactile and personal.
My collection includes pendants, rings, bracelets and bangles, each made with care and precision using high-quality materials that ensure durability and beauty. Customers often comment on the thoughtful packaging and how wearable and meaningful their pieces feel. Whether you’re choosing a gift or treating yourself, Michelle Giles Jewellery offers designs that are elegant, distinctive and made to be treasured.
If you're visiting one of my in-person events or markets, you'll discover exclusive designs not available online, including a gorgeous selection of stacking rings and limited-edition pieces you can mix, match and layer. It’s a wonderful opportunity to try things on, find the perfect fit and experience the textures and finishes up close.
Thank you for visiting my site and supporting my journey. I’d love for you to explore my little shop and see what catches your eye – every piece has a story, and I hope one of them becomes part of yours.
Warmest wishes,
