Julie Pijfers DesignerJeweller

The serendipity of a lost moonstone earring brought me to Julies studio. We arrived in Coromandel for one evening, her studio caught my eye yet was closed and would not reopen before our early AM departure the next day. I was disappointed but figured there would be plenty of other opportunities to explore local artists during our vacation. More than 30 minutes into our journey from Coromandel, I realized one of my favorite moonstone earrings was not dangling from my ear so back we went ISO of it (Luckily recovered unscathed in the stones of the driveway). The brakes on our campervan were hot so we decided to take a break and explore her studio which opened in the meantime. We easily spent an hour with Julie who patiently and kindly showed us piece after piece of her artistry. It is rare for me to fall in love with so many pieces under one roof and by ONE DESIGNER. With so many fabulous choices, we decided to spread the love and gift our beloved family with her beautiful creations for Christmas. Oh, and the compliments I have received from the sterling/labradorite ring (she just finished this and I call it the RING of MAGIC) to the sterling/amethyst ring and silver Tui earrings... A highlight of our visit was discovering Julie, her beautiful designs and family. How fortunate for Coromandel and New Zealand to have such a treasureJulie is an amazing artist, jeweler, kind soul and her studio is filled with magic. Go find yours! My only regret is she is not in my backyard (Sonoma, CA). Julie, wishing you continued success and all things good and hope our paths cross again (said with tears of thanks and joy).

Julie has the most amazing array of stunning quality Jewellery. I was on Holiday in Coromandel and just had to call in. I purchased a couple of Stirling Silver Rings and a Pendant, and am so happy with them. Julie knew what would suit me. A delightful lady. Cannot recommend her highly enough for her guidance.

A beautiful jewellery shop. My husband and I found the perfect ring here to celebrate my 50th birthday, our 30th wedding anniversary and our lovely, relaxing holiday in Coromandel. Beautiful quality jewellery each piece different and interesting. Very happy
