About Me


seraglia couture treasures are constructed from a pirate's chest of materials including antique, vintage and Swarovski beads, semi-precious stones and 'one off' accent pieces, all chosen for their beauty, originality, and in many cases, rarity.
From small accent pieces and love tokens to full dramatic catwalk parures, seraglia jewels have a rare charm and beauty. Please view our gallery to see for yourself.
seraglia couture may be purchased directly from us or from selected stockists. We also have a special selection of couture and reused treasures available to buy ...
We believe that all the earth's resources are precious, and pride our selves on using antique, old, reclaimed and unexpected materials to create lasting heirloom pieces.
We also love to to work to commission, and especially to include your own treasured beads, decorations, fabrics and images.
Because of this, most of our gems are unique, or can only be produced in limited editions with variations. Other designs are available to repeat order.
