Above & Below

Brand Story

Above and Below creates fine jewellery shaped by the sea, celebrating the subtle balance between the raw and the refined.

The brand was born between salt stained research notes and silver dusted workbenches, guided by a founder who journeyed from marine biology to silversmithing. That path informs everything they make. Above and Below is built on a belief that craft and conscience are inseparable, and that beauty carries more meaning when it respects the world that inspires it.

Each piece begins with the ocean: its forms, its textures, its changing light. Designs reflect the rhythm of tides and the poetry of the underwater world, reimagined in recycled sterling silver and gold vermeil. These materials were chosen not only for their quality but for their ability to endure, allowing every creation to move effortlessly from dawn swims to evening soirées, becoming part of the wearer’s everyday rituals.

The brand’s purpose runs deeper than aesthetics. The ocean is both muse and mission. A portion of every purchase directly supports marine conservation through partner organisations, helping to protect fragile ecosystems and the life they hold. It is a way of giving back to the source of their inspiration, ensuring that the waters which sustain us are protected for generations to come.

Every piece is crafted with care, intended to last far beyond seasonal trends. This commitment mirrors the brand’s values: thoughtful design, lasting quality and a deep respect for the natural world.

Above and Below is for those who believe that jewellery should do more than adorn. It should tell a story, honour the planet and contribute to something larger.
