Discover the story behind Marcus Elizabeth's Ocean's Edge Jewellery Collection, where passion meets the serene beauty of the sea. Since childhood, Marcus Elizabeth has been captivated by his mother's gold-adorned hands, sparking a lifelong love for jewellery that feels almost genetic. This deep connection led him to create a stunning sterling silver collection in 2024, fulfilling one of his biggest dreams. Inspired by the tranquil beaches of Curacao, Marcus Elizabeth designed pieces that blend the elegance of sea creatures with contemporary geometric shapes. Join us as we delve into the story of a collection that embodies sustainability, elegance, and the mesmerizing allure of the ocean.

The tranquil beaches of Curacao played a pivotal role in shaping the Ocean's Edge Collection. While designing his first pieces, Marcus Elizabeth found solace and inspiration in the serene coastal landscapes. The calming waves, the gentle sea breeze, and the vibrant marine life provided a perfect backdrop for his creative process. Sitting on the beach, Marcus Elizabeth sketched designs that seamlessly blended the elegance of sea creatures with a contemporary twist. The natural beauty of Curacao’s shores sparked the idea to incorporate elements like the skeletal structure of sea scallops combined with geomatric shapes and the shimmering effect of sea sparkles into his jewellery. These inspirations are evident in the collection's unique textures and intricate details. By infusing elements of the beach lifestyle into his designs, Marcus Elzabeth created a collection that not only reflects the ocean’s allure but also carries the essence of his personal connection to Curacao’s breathtaking scenery.

From a young age, Marcus Elizabeth found himself mesmerized by his mother’s jewellery. Her fingers, always adorned in gold, were a source of endless fascination for him. This early exposure wasn’t just a fleeting interest; it became a part of who he was. Marcus Elizabeth would go to sleep with his favourite jewellery pieces on and he would feel incomplete leaving home without them. This constant presence of jewellery in his life forged a deep, almost genetic connection to the craft. 

Ocean's Edge is the culmination of years of inspiration, rooted deeply in those glittering memories of his mother’s hands. This collection isn’t just a jewellery collection; it’s a tribute to the origins of his love for it.

Sustainability is at the heart of Marcus Elizabeth’s Ocean's Edge Collection. Marcus Elizabeth has always been mindful of the environmental impact of his creations. This collection features genderless open rings that come in two adjustable sizes, reducing the need to produce multiple sizes and thereby minimizing waste. The open design of the main piece, the square ring, was inspired by one of his favourite more than 100-years-old vintage rings from his personal collection. By focusing on adjustability, Marcus Elizabeth ensures that each piece can fit a variety of finger sizes, making the jewellery more inclusive and versatile. The designs are crafted from 925 sterling silver, a hypoallergenic, durable, and recyclable material that aligns perfectly with Marcus Elizabeth's commitment to sustainability. Marcus Elizabeth believes that sustainable practices shouldn't compromise style, and the Ocean's Edge Collection embodies this philosophy by blending eco-consciousness with contemporary elegant designs. It’s a beautiful intersection where ethical responsibility meets artistic expression.
