About Us

Nayana Jewellery is more than a brand — it’s a living legacy.

Rooted in generations of Sri Lankan jewelry craftsmanship, it began with my grandfather, was carried forward by my father, and now continues with me. I grew up surrounded by gold dust, tools, and tradition — where each piece was made with hands, heart, and heritage.

Though life led me down the path of science — becoming a food scientist grounded in facts and formulas — I’ve always known I’m more than one identity. Nayana is where I honour both: the soulful artistry I was born into, and the intentional care I bring from my scientific journey.

Now living in New Zealand, I sketch most of my designs surrounded by native bush, sea air, and quiet mornings — letting nature, memory, and emotion guide each piece. It’s here that I've found the space to shape jewellery that blends timeless South Asian influence with modern minimalist tones.

Our jewellery is handcrafted in small batches, using responsibly sourced materials. Each piece speaks softly — made for those who find beauty in story, emotion, and detail.
