Hi! I’m Elle, the face behind Pretty Steep Jewellery.
Pretty Steep isn't just about mountain-inspired jewellery; it's about capturing that feeling you get when you're in the mountains - that sense of freedom, beauty and fresh air.
Pretty Steep: Mountain-Inspired Jewellery for Your Daily Dose of Mountain Air
The whole idea started with a ski pendant my dad made for me when I was 16. It was so simple, just a little ski made from white gold, but it meant the world because he knew how much the mountains (and skiing!) meant to me. My pull towards the mountain lifestyle was so strong that I moved to the mountains 15 years ago. With Pretty Steep I want to create keepsakes of mountain adventures, made in sterling silver, so you too can carry the spirit of the mountains with you every day.
All my jewellery is designed from scratch by me. All pieces are designed by me, cast in sterling silver, filed, polished and finished. It’s minimal, and made for comfort, so you can wear it every day, no matter the adventure.
What I'm loving right now
Reflecting back on Winter, my fav collection is the "Black Diamonds are Forever" Ski & Snowboard necklaces.
The ski slopes captured my heart back when I was a kid and occasionally visited the Alps. The goggle tans (let's be real, it was sunglasses in the 90s), the cute little chalet-style restaurants, and those incredible views. My Dad made me a keepsake on my 16th birthday to remind me of those times - a ski-shaped pendant.
I wanted to create a replica for Pretty Steep, so you too can keep your winter mountain memories with you, always!
