OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
Seelie Gold is an island in an ocean of possibility, where jewelers with old-world skills don’t fear losing work, we don’t exploit child labor, and vintage jewelry is a true spark for inspiration.
OUR CREATORS The story of Seelie Gold reaches back to the origins of two distinct paths that would eventually unite in a beautiful and unexpected way.
Andrey
Katja
Two wistful souls merged their creativity in the fateful birth of a jewelry company that embodies delight in the craft and the urge to share it with the world.
The first half, Andrey, the son of a theatre artist and theatrical costume designer, had wondered many roads, taking up several professions from a musician to flying the highs and lows of life in international trade leading up to the crisis in 2008. After suffering a near deadly crash, Andrey picked up the pieces and only to discover a truth revealed. There in his freshly exposed heart driven by the artistic roots of the family he remembered a longstanding desire for creative expression through the art of jewelry.
Katja, the missing piece of the puzzle, met Andrew in 2006 after getting her master degree in cultural studies. For quite some time she was navigating Andrey helping him to find the path where his heart would be happy. It took a couple of years until the terrain was set for Seelie Gold to emerge in 2014.
With Katja’s driving spirit and Andrey’s ability to bring true beauty to life through his creative concepts and his vision of jewelry craftsmanship, Seelie Gold was born. With a shared devotion to beauty, old-world skills and a meticulous attention to detail, Andrew and Katja brought the story of Seelie Gold to life. Theirs is a unique and contemporary interpretation of an ancient craft; a phenomenon they wished to share with those who like to indulge in an equally sensory devotion for wild and beautiful things.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
SEELIE GOLD IN EUROPE
We are a Dutch company and the roots of our brand are Russian. Whenever possible, we consciously surround ourselves with old-school masters of jewelry making and professionals in the antiques trade. Our partners are genuinely gifted, and even in old Europe not many of their kind remain. We are working to create an alliance of like-minded artists, in which everyone involved inputs their most valuable skills: knowledge, masterwork, contacts and, most importantly, the desire to participate in the creative process. We live in today’s world, but we gaze back into bygone eras where we find breathtaking inspiration for our creations.
WE LOVE WHAT WE DO
We share our love for jewelry and antiques. We invest our entire hearts and souls in what we do. We feel blessed to turn our passion into business. Initially we did not have the understanding that creating our own collections could be another real career path. Since we stepped into making jewelry we always knew that we are home and now on top of that we are very excited for the future of Seelie Gold.
GEMSTONES, METALS & EXPERTISE
We prefer to use antique diamond cuts, always searching the markets for recycled diamonds and gemstones and giving them a second life. We are doing our best to use as much recycled gemstones as possible. We love natural stones and always looking for the best ones. We consider our mobility to be a big plus. Seelie Gold truly loves to travel. This gives us the advantage of working without middle-men in many corners of the world at the same time. We directly acquire gems from carvers in Jaipur, find small diamonds in Bombay, larger ones in Antwerp, Amsterdam, and London. We buy gold and silver at market prices and estate cut gems of first quality in the secondary markets of the United Kingdom with a good discount. Our team includes experienced buyers, as well as excellent gemologists. It is our primary area of expertise.
CUSTOM ORDER

We are very pleased to have highly selective customers and are thrilled that you have chosen us! We offer our guests two options: to order a custom piece of jewelry created especially for you, or to select from the beautiful pieces we have ready and available. You will be able to find many examples of prêt-a-porter jewelry; simply select from among them and make the purchase. Custom-made pieces take about ten weeks to complete from the date the order is placed. For bespoke jewelry, we ask our clients to make a down payment of 50% of the price at the time when the order is made. The balance would be requested only when the piece is complete. We kindly ask you to submit the orders through our shop. Your orders are always making us happy!
PRODUCTION & SERTIFICATION
Life in our current economic climate has taught us to be thrifty and not to fear organizing our business processes in a multi-national manner, without being tied to any particular country. We collaborate with jewelers from England, Estonia, Argentina, India, and Hong Kong. We consider that, in today’s world, this is an optimal form of cooperation. At your request, we can analyze the gemstones at any of the European Gemological Laboratories and certify the goods. We try to make the process as easy and budget friendly as possible for you and we enjoy doing it.
DELIVERY OF THE JEWELS
We deliver any of our prêt-a-porter jewelry pieces with insurance within three working days by registered post to any European address provided, of course if the chosen destination is not the pinnacle of Mont Blanc! In such a case, surcharges would apply, as technical climbing alpinists can be quite pricey. Generally, however, delivery throughout most of Europe is uncomplicated.
Average time delivery to the countries outside Europe will be within fourteen working days and it will depend on a country, from three to seven days to US and Canada to ten days to Latin America and to fourteen days to Russia, Ukraine etc. Feel free to ask us any further questions using the contact form on this site.
