Multi award winning jeweller Renee Blackwell’s workshop/studio “Harmony House” is set deep in the heart of her delightful 50-acre Eco-property in South East Queensland. As a designer of bespoke jewellery pieces, this peaceful environment is where her inspirations converge, creating her exquisite collections.
Renee’s lifelong passion with adornment began 30 years ago on a trip to East Africa. Her eyes, ears and heart were opened to the exciting possibilities of personal adornment. Since then the direction of her life has been gently steered toward the pursuit of all things beautiful, especially jewellery. Renee is an insatiable experimenter and learner, merging the boundaries between art and jewellery.
Renee says: “I am blessed with the opportunity to make several international trips each year collecting fascinating gemstones, beads, antique buttons and vintage artifacts for eventual inclusion in my designs.” She travels to some of the world’s most remote locations meeting wonderful individuals of all ages, backgrounds and religions. Through her travels many doors of opportunity have opened both personally and business wise, many touching her life in big and small ways.
Back home, in the tranquil environment of her bush studio Renee works in peace, harmony and with great inspiration, creating jewellery to nourish and uplift. “My jewellery is a reflection of all I am and have become. It’s a pleasure to share the passion of my life’s work with you as you wear your favourite treasure, each piece designed and created for you with love and joy.”
