About Tori

---

Tori Poynton has been handcrafting precious jewels since 2005.  

Poynton travels the world to find inspiration for her collections each year. The pieces are made with gems ethically sourced from around the world set in original designs that showcase Poynton's style and aesthetic. All pieces are made in Canada.

After completing a Bachelor of Design at the University of NSW (2007) and studying gemmology at NSCAD (2017) Poynton has gone on to receive Best Design from the Canadian Jeweller Awards of Excellence and is Canada's top 3 designers for Birks x ET Canada design contest.  Poynton has been featured in British Vogue and Fashion Magazine. 

Inspired by the great masters from Matisse's cut-outs  to the prolific hammered works by Alexander Calder, Poynton channels muses from Audrey Hepburn to Grace Kelly. Her work captures nature at it's finest, from play-of-light on the ocean to rock pool formations. Each piece imbues a style translated by Tori into her designs.
