Esh, the mind, heart and soul behind Esh London, has been honing her skills as a jeweller for the last 13+ years, working as a bench jeweller for other fashion and fine jewellery brands.
Amongst other things, she has made jewellery for A-list actors and musicians, BAFTA winning TV shows and academy award winning movies.
Esh makes "slow" jewellery (like slow fashion). Although the website will always have a few ready to wear pieces in gold and silver, her passion lies in making bespoke, hand-crafted pieces, uniquely tailored to the wearer.
Whilst Esh London has "ranges" of items in similar styles, Esh does not work on a collections basis and each piece is one-of-a-kind.
Having an obsession with stones from a very young age and a massive gemstone collection to boot, Esh builds her ready to wear designs around a particular stone, or around a particular concept floating around in her mind.
Particular favourites are Labradorite and Tourmaline and unusually shaped stones.
Esh loves expanding her horizons and is always keen to learn more jewellery skills.
In 2018 Esh started training as a hand engraver and loves incorporating contemporary engraving into her designs.
Most recently learning advanced stones setting, now almost all pieces are set in-house by herself.

Esh is very keen to make Esh London as eco-friendly and sustainable as possible and is always looking for ways to improve on this.
Whether it’s recycling materials, or packaging, Esh makes sure nothing goes to waste.
She reuses packaging a lot, so please don't be alarmed if your beautiful treasure arrives in used packaging.
You can be absolutely certain it was still made and packaged with the utmost care and love.
All Esh London pieces above the exemption weight (7.78g for silver and 1g for gold) are hallmarked at the London Assay Office.
Most under weight pieces will not be hallmarked to keep the price down, but can always be hallmarked at cost per your request, to assure you of the quality!
