Serial Muddy award-winning Southsea jeweller Charlotte Cornelius started her creative jewellery design shop from her home studio, a short walk from the beach on Hayling Island. It proved so popular that she moved the firm to the indie shopping Mecca of Southsea.

Here, in her gorgeous Marmion Road shop, front-of-house and workshop teams work together to bring imaginative, statement and bespoke fine jewellery designs to fruition.

Ethically conscious with a local focus, all Charlotte Cornelius jewellery is made and hallmarked in England, with gems bought from UK dealers and using only conflict-free diamonds. The brand also supports ethically mined gems and eco and recycled silver and gold. Their gold and silver bullion is melted down to it’s purest form and used to create imaginative designer jewellery collections.

When it comes to weddings, one-size rarely fits all. From platinum princess to Sapphire sparkler, there’s a great choice of love-them-forever bridal collections in different styles, comprising engagement ring and wedding band. A nod to Charlotte’s beach walks, we also love the stunning silver bubble and art-deco inspired Hex collections.

Got a vision of the perfect ring or necklace – but can’t find it in the shops? Bespoke pieces are a specialism, with attention to detail and customer service as polished as the final product. Charlotte and her talented team will also remodel vintage pieces, making vintage finds and special heirlooms unique and wearable.
