Why We Love It Here At Odyssea:
❁ 100% of Midsummer Star's production uses ethically sourced metal. Currently, 70% of their production is recycled silver and 50% of their gold is recycled gold. Their goal is to use 100% recycled metals. (A big kiss to the environment)
❁ Durable enough for everyday wear
❁ Personally, this is my favourite jewellery brand, which speaks volumes coming from a retail owner who is sent a lot of jewellery to try!
❁ Get ready for the 'omg, I love your earrings!'
Care:
With a little care, your jewellery will continue to glow. We recommend the following to help you look after your jewellery to keep it looking as new as possible:
- Keep your jewellery away from chemicals (like chlorinated water, sunscreen, perfume, cosmetics, hairspray, hand sanitiser, etc.)
- Whilst the jewellery is durable, hard surfaces, sharp blows, scratching and extreme temperatures can damage your jewellery.
- We don’t recommend you swim in the ocean in your jewellery, but if you do, rinse it with cold water and pat dry with a soft cotton cloth. (Personally, I’ve been a little too lazy to follow this advice, and three years later, my jewellery has only the tiniest hint of tarnishing that you can really only see up close. From a normal distance, it still looks brand new!)
- Take care when removing clothing. We use fine chains in our jewellery; their delicate nature means that they need to be cared for to avoid accidentally snagging or stretching.
About The Brand:
Midsummer Star is the shared creative journey of Krishnan and Rachel, partners in life and in creation. Inspired by decades of travelling through the temples, markets and landscapes of Asia and beyond, their jewellery captures the beauty of faraway places, ancient symbols and diverse cultures. Each design begins as a hand drawn sketch in their Sydney studio, before being brought to life by master artisans in Thailand and India, whose skills have been passed down through generations. With a shared commitment to integrity, craftsmanship and respect for the earth, Midsummer Star creates jewellery with meaning, made to be treasured and worn for years to come.
