A new destination for thoughtfully curated, fashion-forward jewellery has arrived in the heart of the Cape Winelands. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Makery Collection, a South African jewellery brand known for its distinctive blend of handmade beaded designs and gold accents, opened its newest boutique in Stellenbosch on Thursday 26 March.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in Johannesburg by former magazine editor Jacqui Myburgh Chemaly and her business partner Heidi Gresty, the brand reflects both women’s passion for fashion and accessories with a touch of unique, boho style. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Makery Collection has become synonymous with modern, wearable pieces that feel luxurious.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brand’s signature aesthetic merges bohemian ease with refined styling, offering jewellery that seamlessly transitions from everyday wear to special occasions.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the core of The Makery Collection is a belief that jewellery is every woman’s opportunity to tell her style story. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The founders maintain there’s no right and wrong when it comes to jewellery, each piece designed to be layered, stacked and styled to reflect the style of the wearer.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extensive range<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From delicate gold chains and textured hoops to vibrant beaded necklaces created in their Johannesburg studio and charm-inspired details, the collections invite customers to build a look that feels entirely their own.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Makery Collection has also become a popular gifting destination. With beautiful packaging and an accessible price point the brand serves as a go-to option for celebrating milestones, friendships or special moments. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Stellenbosch store at 5 Plein Street captures the essence of The Makery Collection. Partnered with Sitting Pretty clothing, the boutique is warm, inviting, and visually inspiring.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our goal has always been to create jewellery that feels special yet effortless,” said Myburgh. “Opening in Stellenbosch allows us to connect with a community that appreciates craftsmanship, style and storytelling. We’re excited to introduce The Makery Collection to the Western Cape in a way that feels authentic to who we are.'” \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its unique blend of boho flair and contemporary design, The Makery Collection is a must-visit destination for fashion lovers, stylists and gift-givers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
