About Us

Welcome to Verona Studios a mother daughter collaboration on jewellery that is made for everyone. We specialise in 925 Sterling Silver, 14k Gold-fill, 9k Solid Yellow Gold and 9k Solid White Gold creations. Verona was our late bichon frise who lit up our world and inspired us daily.

Mama Evi has been jeweller, silversmith and goldsmith for over 2 decades and with our collective minds we are taking the business to the digital realm and each week will add in new pieces so please come back and regularly check out our latest pieces.

As for me, Riina a second-generation jeweller, silversmith and goldsmith. I have had the best Virgo mother and mentor teach me all about creating the perfect piece of jewellery. The vibe, energy and the feeling when someone unboxes a beautiful handmade piece of jewellery can be one of the best uplifting experiences. Whether you are buying for a family member, friend or for yourself our quality is what we stand behind.

We both have a strong connection to our Estonian heritage and designing pieces with a modern twist that reflect our culture. We also both love astrology and learning all about Zodiac personalities. As an Aries with a Firey flare driven to perfection and can help you create the perfect family tree of zodiac symbols to wear around your wrist and pass down generation to generation.

We hope you enjoy your keepsake jewellery as much as we love creating each unique piece.

How to care for my jewellery

Jewellery is delicate and will wear over time. To extend the life of your jewellery avoid contact with creams, perfumes, chemicals such as chlorine in pools, liquids and salt water.

Avoid contact with excess water and steam and do not wear in the shower, while bathing or swimming. Avoid extreme sunlight and temperatures.

Remove jewellery for all sporting activity and physical exercise and before starting any household gardening and cleaning, especially where chemical sprays or gels are used.

Please use the complimentary anti-tarnish polish cloth to keep your jewellery clean and shining bright by wiping the metal gently.

How to store your jewellery

Keeping your jewellery in an airtight box or container in a dry, dark and cool place is the best way to store your jewellery, especially if you are not wearing your piece every day.

In hotter climates where humidity, heat and moisture are prevalent we recommend an anti-tarnish jewellery box or container or ziploc bag.

Regular polishing

Regular polishing with your complimentary polishing cloth will help keep the shine on your jewellery.
