We’re delighted to showcase this wonderful collection of bridal hair accessories and jewellery by the fabulously talented Clare Lloyd. Inspired by butterflies in the most exquisitely beautiful way, Clare’s Aurelian Collection combines fine handcrafted details with thoughtfully crafted botanical curves. A chemical free collection of handmade leaves and flowers, stems and buds from natural metals, glass and crystal, this is the one-of-a-kind accessory you’re likely to fall head over heels in love with. I always think of Clare’s handcrafted bridal pieces as heirlooms – they’re so beautifully made and wonderfully detailed.

I hope you enjoy our feature today! 
Weddings are celebrations of romantic love. But often, they’re also about bringing families — old and new — together to mark the growth of a new branch on the family tree. What better way to honour this union than by creating a piece of jewellery that combines the love and goodwill of multiple generations?
At Heulwen Lewis Bespoke, we specialise in breathing new life into preloved or inherited jewellery by remodelling it to reflect your taste.
Hello
I’m Sarah. I specialise in designing and creating beautiful custom-made engagement and wedding jewellery.
A romantic at heart
I’ve always been a romantic. For me, creativity and relationships are all part of the same thing. As a two-year-old watching my grampa paint, I couldn’t wait to pick up a brush — just a few years later we were painting portraits side-by-side. Beading pieces of my Nan’s broken jewellery was another passion. I don’t know what I loved more — spending time together or being creative — but to this day, the warm feeling I get when creating a sentimental piece inspires me.
