Product design

For individuals who enjoy simple, nature-inspired jewellery made of silver and gold-plated silver, Nua Nua jewellery offers an affordable range.

Women can use jewels they wear on a daily basis to showcase their inner creativity and strength.

Slow fashion processes

By offering workshops and custom work, the brand guarantees that the consumer will treasure the jewels for a very long time. The brand thinks it’s critical that as many people as possible can afford their goods. For this reason, people choose for gold-plated jewellery rather than 14 or 18 carat gold. Nua Nua jewellery also sells cleaning supplies and gives advice on how to maintain jewellery to make it last as long as possible.
