I'm Steph - the founder & designer behind Little Gold

It started in a tiny, glass-walled kiosk; a greenhouse-like space filled to the brim with sparkling gems.

By the summer of 2014, Little Gold had moved into our own standalone shop in the heart of downtown Victoria.

This airy space in a heritage building held a curated collection of pieces from incredible independent designers, alongside my own pieces (and a thriving tomato plant).

With crystal-inspired furnishings hand-built by friends and family, a pile of secondhand rugs, two employees that I couldn't have done without, and one very beloved shop dog - this was home.

In 2020, with the shop's lease coming to an end, it felt like the right time to take a leap (and a very deep breath) and moved Little Gold fully online.

Now working from my home-based studio, I had shifted to focusing on and developing my own line more completely. Learning new techniques and honing old ones, I was growing into my own style and voice as an artist.

The Inspiration

This is what I’m most proud of with Little Gold: people choosing to connect my jewellery with themselves, their own lives, and their stories.

Sure, the little house charm is cute but it also represents that day you and your best friend moved in together during college; those starry summer nights spent laughing on the tiny balcony under the glow of fairy lights (and maybe figuring out how to get red wine stains out of the rental's carpet...)

For more than 10 years, this has been my inspiration - being able to share it, connecting with you & your stories is nothing short of magic.
