Minka Jewels

Minka Jewels is a London-based jewellery business specialising in quality, heirloom jewellery, founded by British gemmologist Lucy Crowther in 2016. Its focus is on making fuss-free designs with simple clean lines, modern settings and a good amount of gold - giving each exquisite gemstone the platform it deserves. Each piece is designed and made in the UK, led by striking, colourful gemstones sourced from all over the world.

Meet Lucy

With a creative eye since childhood and an early career at the globally renowned Gem Palace in Jaipur, as well as London’s Hatton Gardens, Lucy has become an expert at translating inspired ideas into one-of-a-kind, wearable designs. A trained gemologist from the Gemmological Institute of Great Britain (Gem-A), Lucy specialises in hand picking gemstones of unmatched clarity, rarity and vibrancy.

The name Minka is an amalgamation of the names of Lucy's great-grandmother, Minnie, and grandmother, Katrina, who were both ardent jewellery lovers. She is proud to be following in their stylish footsteps today in the running of Minka Jewels.

Our Collections

Each collection takes inspiration from Lucy’s travels and the beauty of the natural world, whether that be the crystal clear waters of the Caribbean sea, the changing seasons of Les Trois Vallées or Berlin’s jewel-like sparkle at night. Each piece tells a tale and truly emulates the beauty and meaning behind its design.

Bespoke

Offering modern twists on easy-to-wear, bold shapes, Minka not only creates its signature pieces, but also offers a bespoke service for those looking to reset inherited stones or rework existing jewels, commission alternative engagement rings, or those simply wanting to be part of the design process.
