Welcome to Rachel Hartley Atelier

I am delighted to introduce my new home for handcrafted artisan gemstone jewellery, where every piece is created with intention, craftsmanship, and an appreciation for the natural beauty of exceptional gemstones.

I’m Rachel Hartley, founder and jewellery designer of Rachel Hartley Atelier. With years of experience studying and working with the healing properties and energy of crystals, my knowledge of gemstone selection extends beyond aesthetics. Each stone is chosen not only for its beauty and individuality, but also for the qualities it is believed to embody.

Every design begins with the gemstone. I work with carefully selected stones, combining them with sterling silver, gold vermeil, and copper to create jewellery that is both timeless and deeply personal.

Each piece is handcrafted in my studio with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that every creation reflects the care, skill, and intention invested in its making. This is not mass-produced jewellery. It is created slowly, one piece at a time, for those who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and meaningful design.

Green tourmaline is among the most vivid of the tourmaline family, its colour ranging from pale mint to a deep, saturated forest green, the result of iron and chromium present during crystallisation. Found in pegmatite formations across Brazil, Afghanistan, Tanzania, and parts of Africa, it is prized for the exceptional depth and clarity it achieves when faceted, a green that holds its intensity in all lighting conditions and rewards close attention. High grade stones are selected for exceptional clarity, depth of colour, and the quality of their cut.

Tourmaline has long been associated with protection and vitality. Green tourmaline in particular works with the heart chakra, but where pink tourmaline speaks to emotional openness and self-compassion, green tourmaline brings a more grounded energy — one of renewal, growth, and connection to the natural world. It is said to support physical vitality and stamina, to encourage a sense of abundance and possibility, and to bring a steady, nourishing energy to those who wear it. A stone of the living world.

These hoop earrings feature natural high-grade green tourmaline stones wrapped with gold vermeil wire; sterling silver with a layer of solid 24K gold, with stacked gold vermeil flat spacers accenting each stone, adding a refined, layered detail to the wrap. Suspended from 20mm gold vermeil hoops, the warm gold tone draws out the depth and richness of the green tourmaline in a pairing that feels both grounded and refined.

The hoop is one of the oldest and most enduring forms in jewellery, worn across cultures and centuries, from ancient Egypt to the present day. Unbroken and continuous, it carries a quiet symbolism of wholeness and return. It is also simply one of the most flattering shapes an earring can take, framing the face without demanding attention, moving with the wearer, and working as well with a coat as it does with nothing at all. Some forms never go out of style because they were never really in it.
