About the designer

I’m Julie, the founder and designer of Bold Lines Jewellery. My journey began over 15 years ago, when I moved from Paris to Ireland after completing a Master’s in Art and Project Management.

I grew up in a creative family, my father was a graphic designer and my mother worked in fashion retail and from an early age I developed a love for aesthetics through visits to museums in Paris. I was also fascinated by my mam’s jewellery collection, pieces she carefully sourced from exhibitions and independent shops. Architecture, interiors, and the diverse people I meet along the way continue to inspire my work today.

In my jewellery, I love blending raw, organic shapes with fluid forms, reflecting my passion for both the city and the countryside. I’m proud to be a member of the Design & Crafts Council of Ireland and the Council of Irish Fashion Designers.

About Bold Lines Jewellery

Bold Lines Jewellery embraces contemporary design with a bold twist, crafted for those who appreciate individuality and personal style. Balancing geometric and organic forms, each piece prioritizes comfort, elegance, and quality. Created from high-quality materials like brass, sterling silver, and 18ct gold plating, these designs offer sophistication and lasting durability.

Each piece speaks to people passionate about art, culture, and beautiful design, embodying a connection to modern artistry.

Sustainability

Sustainability is at the heart of everything I do. I carefully consider each step of the process from design to eco-friendly packaging (boxes, bags, and cards) to ensure it aligns with thoughtful, sustainable practices.

Whenever possible, I source raw materials locally and tools from a family-run business in Dublin.

Each piece is designed and handcrafted in my Kildare studio with a deep focus on responsible choices, from the tools and techniques I use to the materials I carefully select.

I prioritise quality and durable design so that each piece can be refreshed and restored after a few years, whether it’s a quick re-polish or re-plating ensuring it can truly last a lifetime. I produce pieces on demand and in small batches rather than mass production, which helps reduce waste. I also do my best to reuse offcuts whenever possible.

Sustainability is an ongoing journey, and I’m always exploring new ways to improve. You can read this article (just click the green button) where I, along with other designers, share our views and experiences on the journey toward sustainability.
