SARAH & SEBASTIAN

Every girl I know loves this fine, delicate jewellery, but I’m a fan because it’s the opposite of fast fashion: Designers use reclaimed gold and silver, source the stones ethically, and everything is handmade. Their Alexandria showroom is stunning, with white walls and panelled windows. It’s a well-thought-out shopping experience from beginning to end. The jewellery might be understated but, as is often the case with well-made things, it’s not cheap. This is the kind of place you’d shop to find a gift for the milestone birthday of a dear friend or partner and know they’ll appreciate—and wear—it for years to come.
