About Elova

The origins of Elova started with the dreams of a little seven-year-old Aussie girl who weaved rings from the leaves of she-oak trees. An entrepreneur from the beginning, Erin would sell her woven rings on the playground marketplace for 10c each and use the proceeds to buy pikelets from the school canteen.

Over the years, her skills and passions for crafting jewellery have grown from leaf rings to creating hand-forged heirlooms using traditional goldsmithing techniques. Erin developed her skills as an apprentice at notable jewellery houses such as Kailis Pearls and Rohan Jewellers. So exceptional was her skills and determination that she was awarded Apprentice of the Year and was a medallist at a national level in the World Skills Competition. She even had the privilege to work on a necklace for Oprah and Gale on their Australian Down Under Tour.

After completing her apprenticeship, Erin became a fully qualified Jeweller at Tayha Designs in Mt Lawley, where her skills continued to grow from working with such an innovative team.

In 2014 Erin started Elova Jewellery and began working with her own clients in her own workshop in Waikiki. While the industry is moving towards CAD production, it can still never compare to the strength of jewellery thats been forged, bent and rolled using traditional goldsmith technique. Erin is committed to producing only heirloom quality jewellery for her customers.

Whether it’s repairing a sentimental family heirloom, creating a custom-designed piece of jewellery from scratch or remodelling old jewellery and giving it a new life, clients rest easy, knowing that their treasures are being crafted with skill and passion. Erin takes videos and photos documenting the captivating process so her clients can see their heirlooms being created in real-time and be part of the whole production process.

“My passion is working with my hands. There is satisfaction in knowing that my clients are involved through all stages of the process with me. From the initial consultation to design sketches to the person behind the bench making the design a reality, it’s all me. When clients see their finished jewellery, there is nothing better than knowing that I was able to take my clients dreams and ideas and make them into an heirloom that will last for lifetimes.”
