Jewellery That Holds a Piece of Your Heart
Whether you’re an aspiring goldsmith or a creative soul looking to explore a new passion, our academy offers a range of programs designed to guide you every step of the way.
Jewellery
from Ashes
A Lasting Tribute
Our memorial jewellery offers a heartfelt way to remember those who have passed. Each piece incorporates a small amount of cremation ash into the design — creating a subtle, meaningful reminder of your loved one. Choose from elegant rings, pendants, or bracelets, all custom-made to reflect your story.
Pet Keepsake
Jewellery
Honour Their Love
Losing a pet is never easy, but their memory can live on through a custom piece that celebrates their life. We can incorporate ashes or a small amount of fur, along with engraved details like their name or paw print — a comforting way to keep them close forever.
Milestone
Jewellery
Celebrate Every Moment
As parents, we treasure every milestone, and our children’s first lost tooth is no exception. Our keepsake jewellery allows you to encapsulate baby teeth or other meaningful symbols of childhood into a design that represents love, growth, and family.

At Rene Honeyman Jewellery, every bespoke piece begins with you. Our process is designed to be personal, transparent, and inspiring — turning your ideas into a one-of-a-kind piece of art that lasts a lifetime.

Bringing Your Vision to Life
Once we understand what you love, we create a detailed design — either hand-drawn or digitally modelled in 3D. You’ll see your piece take shape and have the chance to refine every detail until it feels perfect.

Handmade with Precision
In our workshop, your design is brought to life by skilled goldsmiths using a blend of traditional techniques and modern technology. Every setting, polish, and finish is completed by hand to ensure lasting beauty and exceptional quality.
04. The Reveal
Your Story, Set in Stone
The moment you see your finished piece is always the most rewarding. Whether it’s an engagement ring, a custom gift, or a keepsake, your jewellery arrives beautifully packaged, ready to be cherished for generations.
