Welcome to a Ayu Jewels Studio!

My name is a Kiran, and I am a jewellery maker based in Dublin, Ireland. I like to make my jewellery from various kinds of materials like semi precious stones, brass and wood. But most of my collections are made from polymer clay.
I mainly make earrings but also necklaces and rings, and also some home items like trinket dishes and framed art pieces.

My jewellery journey started in March 2020. The beginning of pandemic, everything was shutting down and we were all staying home. I had already been planning to start a small business selling handmade from small makers and businesses from around the world. But after I became interested in polymer clay jewellery, that I was seeing examples on Instagram and Pinterest, I wanted to give it a go,

To me, the best part of it all is the constant learning curve I’m on. I’m self taught, so everything I know I learnt myself through trial and error, and maybe the odd question searched on Google. I’m still learning - new techniques and skills, finding my own style, dos and don’ts of running a handmade business - every day it’s something new.

And what kind of style is “my own style”?

Think bold, bright, colour clashing, colour complimenting, maximalist, modern statement making pieces.

Always unique, small batch collections too.

Love & light to you all,
Kiran.
