Lilly Hastedt grew up in Guatemala, and trained as a goldsmith in Germany and London, where her studio has been based for over 20 years. Her inspiration comes from the sights and sounds of the natural world which she experienced in her early years in Central America, motivating her to capture nature’s beauty in her distinctive designs, whilst incorporating traditional jewellery making techniques at the heart of her work.

Her ‘Bon Bon’ rings are one of her classic designs, made in a variety of gemstones and different colour ways.
