Welcome to the mesmerizing world of Sri Lanka, where nature's splendour thrives both above and below the azure waves of the Indian Ocean.

This enchanting island not only captivates with its lush landscapes and vibrant culture but also inspires the creation of our exquisite jewellery pieces.

Join us as we explore the wonders of Sri Lanka and the unique stories behind our jewellery 

 

Our journey with Sri Lanka began during an unforgettable surf trip that extended into a four-month stay . This period coincided with a tumultuous time for the country, as it faced significant financial difficulties and government bankruptcy, making headlines worldwide. Despite these challenges, the resilient spirit of the Sri Lankan people and the island's inherent beauty left an indelible mark on our hearts and our craft.

Picture yourself standing on the sun-kissed shores of Sri Lanka, feeling the warm embrace of the tropical sun as it bathes the coastline in golden light.

But the beauty of Sri Lanka extends far beyond its sandy beaches. Beneath the surface lies a world of wonders, waiting to be explored.

 

At the end of our four-month stay, one of our Sri Lankan friends gifted me a handmade seashell necklace from my favourite beach on the South Coast of the island. This seashell became incredibly precious to me, serving as a tangible reminder of some of the best moments of my life—moments that made me feel profoundly connected to my surroundings, alive, happy, and content. It was during this time that I began to truly value what mattered most in life.

Upon returning to the UK, I found that the style of the shell necklace didn't quite match my work outfits. I longed for something more sophisticated and fashionable, something that could seamlessly blend my cherished memories with a sense of elegance and modernity. That was the start of our journey in creating Sippi. Returning to Sri Lanka, I shared my vision with local friends whose support helped transform it into reality. Together, we combined the island's natural beauty with refined design, creating jewellery that embodies the essence of Sri Lanka  whilst blending in with a modern lifestyle. An skilled artisan showed us traditional techniques, and each piece in our collection reflects this rich heritage and collaboration.

Our journey with Sippi is one of creativity, community, and connection.
