Islands in Bloom CORKY SAINT CLAIR X SOFLOWER brings together the delicate beauty of flowers and the brilliance of gemstones in a unique exploration of nature and craftsmanship.

Come visit the exhibition of Corky Saint Clair’s latest jewellery collection inspired by the tropical world of Ishigaki, Japan. This collection of wearable fine jewellery showcases ethically created Saikesshoka Emeralds, recrystallised emeralds from Japan, set in precious metals and crafted by hand in its Melbourne studio.

The collection introduces refined hand engraving, accentuating botanical patterns and organic forms found on the islands. This intricate detailing marks an exciting new direction for Corky Saint Clair, capturing the essence of Ishigaki’s lush environment. To further evoke the feeling of the islands, Corky Saint Clair is collaborating with floral artist SOFLOWER to create island-inspired floral sculptures, bringing Okinawa’s lush landscapes into the space.

Join the creatives in their garden studio to view the collection and meet the team, Chris Bril, Eva Reiser, and Chris Allery, as they share insights into the creative process behind Islands in Bloom.
