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.

Tiger's Eye

Striking, grounding and full of character, Tiger's Eye is one of nature's most captivating gemstones. Its rich bands of golden brown and amber shimmer with a silky, chatoyant lustre, a phenomenon that creates a living, moving light within the stone that shifts with every angle.

At Rachel Hartley Atelier, each Tiger's Eye piece is chosen for the depth and warmth of its natural patterning, crafted to be worn as a bold, grounding talisman.

Associated with the Solar Plexus and Root chakras, Tiger's Eye is said to inspire courage, focus and self-confidence, a stone for those who move through the world with intention and strength.
