About
Welcome to Empathy Creations!
Founded in 2002, Empathy Creations is a jewellery brand based in Belfast, offering a diverse range of handmade jewellery crafted with passion and care. Our creations encompass two distinct streams: one using precious materials such as sterling silver and gemstones, while the other embraces non-precious materials like plated wire and beads.
At Empathy Creations, each piece of jewellery is meticulously crafted using traditional techniques such as sawing, texturing, and wirework, predominantly with hand tools. This attention to detail ensures that every item is unique, often existing as limited editions or one-of-a-kind creations.
Our inspiration stems from the rich cultural landscape of the surrounding area and the materials themselves, infusing each piece with meaning and storytelling. Whether it's a nod to local folklore or more emotional connections, our jewellery embodies a connection to our roots and experiences.
The creative force behind Empathy Creations is Nikki, a skilled maker and designer who graduated from the University of Ulster with a degree in Fine and Applied Arts, specialising in Jewellery and Silversmithing. With a keen eye for design and a deep understanding of her craft, Nikki brings her vision to life through her intricate and thoughtfully crafted pieces.
In addition to our retail offerings, Empathy Creations provides a repair service, ensuring that your cherished jewellery is worn. We also offer jewellery workshops, providing enthusiasts with the opportunity to learn the art of jewellery making firsthand.
You can find Empathy Creations showcasing our latest creations at St. George's Market, Belfast every other Saturday. Be sure to check our website for upcoming dates and events.
