Founder Timeline
From NHS heart transplant care to sustainable British fine jewellery - Jade’s journey to Dainty London.
2012
Children’s Heart Transplant Specialist (London)
I began my career as a children’s heart transplant specialist in London, supporting families through life-changing care. Outside the hospital, I made handmade jewellery as a creative hobby - the earliest spark behind what would become Dainty London Jewellery.
2014
Goldsmiths’ Centre Jewellery Training (London)
I enrolled in a jewellery course at the Goldsmiths’ Centre in London, learning the intricacies of stone setting, fine jewellery design, and high-end craftsmanship. This period shaped the foundations of Dainty London’s British jewellery design style and meticulous attention to detail.
2018
Motherhood, Burnout, and the Birth of Dainty London
After having my first baby, I felt burnt out from working in the NHS and decided to build something of my own. I launched Dainty London, investing my savings into a new chapter focused on sustainable jewellery, thoughtful design, and accessible luxury jewellery made to last.
2019
London Fashion Week Breakthrough
Dainty London was featured at London Fashion Week, a pivotal moment that helped launch my brand onto the national stage. The collection captured attention for its refined, modern feel - dainty gold jewellery, elevated everyday pieces, and a distinctly British point of view.
Today
Recognised for Sustainable British Luxury Jewellery
Today, Dainty London is recognised for its commitment to quality design and sustainable jewellery practices. My work has been featured in British Vogue, Tatler, Stylist, and The Telegraph. I am honoured that my pieces have been worn by some of the world’s most influential women, including Kylie Minogue and Emeli Sandé, and even on the Oscars red carpet.
Most recently, my mission to create accessible, thoughtful luxury jewellery while staying true to my sustainable values was highlighted by Forbes, featuring me among inspiring “Female Founders to Celebrate” for Women’s History Month.
BRAND ETHOs
We are on a mission to kill off boring
jewellery.
Right now, the market is split in two - you’ve got mass-produced pieces that all look the
same, and then traditional fine jewellery that feels outdated, overly polished, and out of reach. There’s nothing in the middle that actually feels personal anymore.
That’s the gap we are filling.
We are building a brand that sits between fast fashion and fine jewellery - but with a much stronger identity. It’s jewellery that feels cool, not conventional. Elevated, but not untouchable.
Because people don’t want perfect anymore - they want something that feels like theirs.
Dainty London is not just jewellery. It is a journey… A quiet escape to sunlit shores, a spark of fire at twilight, a grounding touch of earth beneath your feet, a whisper of wind in open skies.
A keepsake of memory and magic, a reminder of strength and freedom, worn close to the skin.
“Jewellery for women who move like water, glow like fire, bloom like the earth, and fly like the wind.”
Dainty London was born in the spaces between elements and dreams - where sunlight dances on water, flames shimmer in the hearth, wind whispers across open fields, and the earth holds the secrets of centuries.
Each piece carries the power of the elements: the fluid grace of waves, the bold spark of fire, the grounded wisdom of stone and soil, and the airy freedom of the open sky.
