Hello, I’m Jade, the maker behind Ethereal Forge.
Ethereal Forge is my small handmade jewellery studio based in France. What began as a passion for gemstones, my love for copper and making things by hand has grown into a space where I can share pieces that feel personal, expressive, and special.
Every piece you’ll find here is handmade by me, using carefully selected gemstones, wirework techniques, and a lot of patience and care. I’m drawn to stones not only for their colours and textures, but for the way each one feels completely unique — no two are ever the same.
I personally source many of my gemstones in person from different places, some of them are shipped out from South Africa and India, choosing stones that stand out for their beauty, character, and natural energy. I love working with a variety of stones such as jasper, garnet, peridot, amazonite, prehnite, agate, aventurine, apatite and many more, allowing each design to develop naturally around the stone itself.
My style is inspired by earthiness, softness, elegance and individuality. Some pieces feel delicate and ethereal, others bold and expressive, but all are created to be wearable art jewellery that helps you feel confident, radiant, and truly yourself.
Because everything is made by hand in small batches or as one-of-a-kind designs, your jewellery will always feel personal and special.
Why I Create
I believe jewellery can be more than an accessory. It can hold meaning, reflect personality, mark a moment in time, or simply bring a little beauty into everyday life. I hope each piece brings that feeling to the person who wears it.
I have always felt drawn to gemstones and copper for their beauty, character, and the sense of connection they carry. Many people are naturally attracted to certain stones for their colours, symbolism, or simply the way they make them feel, and I love that each person connects with them in their own unique way. For centuries, gemstones and copper have been treasured for their natural beauty and timeless qualities, and that history is part of what inspires me.
I feel especially connected to copper because of its warmth, rich earthy tones, and the life it brings to a piece. I love the way it complements natural gemstones and allows their beauty to shine. What I love most is that copper changes gently over time, developing its own patina and story with the person who wears it, making each creation even more personal and unique. But off course, I work with many more type of materials.
Handmade Nature of My Work
Each item is individually handmade rather than factory produced. This means slight variations, small irregularities, and natural differences may be present from piece to piece. These details are not flaws, they are part of the charm, character, and authenticity of handmade jewellery.
No two creations will ever be exactly identical, and that uniqueness is what makes handmade work so special. By purchasing from Ethereal Forge, you are choosing something crafted by human hands with care, not mass-produced perfection.
Custom Orders
I also welcome custom jewellery requests and love bringing personal ideas to life. If you have a favourite gemstone, colour palette, style, or inspiration in mind, feel free to message me. I’d be happy to discuss creating something unique just for you.
Jewellery Care
To help your jewellery stay beautiful for years to come:
Avoid water, perfumes, lotions, and harsh chemicals.
Remove before showering, swimming, or exercising.
Store in a soft pouch or jewellery box when not in use.
Clean gently with a soft dry cloth after use.
Many of my pieces are created using copper wire or copper-based metals. Copper naturally develops a deeper tone or soft patina over time through contact with air, moisture, skin oils, and everyday wear. This is a normal natural process and not a fault. Some people love this aged character, while others prefer to gently polish their jewellery occasionally to restore brightness.
Natural gemstones can also vary in colour, pattern, and texture, which is part of what makes each piece unique.
