The Village Goldsmith has been designing and crafting jewellery in Wellington, New Zealand since 1981. Our team of expert craftsmen are often inspired by the surroundings in which we live and work. “It gives us an edge, and an advantage I think, when competing on a global scale. Our designs and craftsmanship stand out”.
“We wanted to create a Collection that celebrates our heritage in New Zealand and the identity of the country as a whole”.
