The Rico Story
Living
on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Rico Designs founder Richelle divides her time
between her two passions – jewellery and surfing.
From as far back as she can
remember she’s created her own unique style of adornments, delighting in the
love people get from choosing and wearing her pieces. This, in turn, drives her
creativity. Richelle founded Rico Designs in 2010 in response to countless
requests from friends and strangers to share her talents.
Living just metres
from the ocean, everything in the collection is shaped and influenced by her
experiences on the beaches, in the waves and soaking up the sun.
Much like the
sea, her designs are always changing and evolving. Pieces are infused with
memories of travels through Asia, Europe and South America. From statement
pieces to everyday treasures, from colours to contours, it all starts with the
sun, the sea and the outdoors.
Richelle loves to work with top quality,
natural materials. Precious stones, premium quality leather, sterling silver,
gemstones and wooden beads are carefully chosen and combined to complement each
other. Much like your own unique life journey, everything in her collection has
a backstory. Jewellery has the power to evoke memories of good times and places
once travelled. Rico Designs captures those moments – reminding you of happy
days and making you feel fantastic.
This unique collection of hand-made
jewellery is fast becoming synonymous with boho-chic and a carefree beach
lifestyle.
