MASTER JEWELLER

For decades our Master Jeweller, Joachim van Oostrum, has been helping others tell their unique love story.
A renowned goldsmith, he has garnered a reputation for creating beautifully crafted and unique pieces made to stand the test of time. 

A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY - JOACHIM VAN OOSTRUM

Following five years of training in Amsterdam, Joachim van Oostrum qualified as a goldsmith at the age of 21. In his final year of study, he entered the Netherlands Goldsmith Competition where he was awarded third prize. Once qualified he worked for top jewellery establishments in the Netherlands. After ten years’ experience, which included working on many special and unique pieces, he ventured abroad with his sights set on New Zealand. Highlights of his jewellery career in New Zealand so far include winning the New Zealand Jewellery Showcase competition and crafting exclusive pieces for high-profile clients including British royalty.

Joachim loves connecting with people and enjoys creating something special which will be treasured for a lifetime. Whether it be an engagement ring, wedding ring, or recreating a new piece using sentimental heirloom jewellery. From concept to completion, Joachim’s passion underpins every step of the jewellery process. What sets LOVE IN A JEWEL apart is Joachim's involvement throughout every stage – from initial sketches to melting the gold, through to setting and final polishing.

A talented artisan who makes everyone who walks through the door feel welcome, he puts his heart, soul and years of experience into every piece.

“Nothing makes me happier than contributing to peoples’ stories by crafting meaningful jewellery which will be loved for generations.”
