Every piece in our copper collection begins with a simple philosophy: create jewellery that is beautiful, honest, and made to last.
For thousands of years, copper has been admired for its natural beauty, remarkable durability, and rich heritage. Unlike plated jewellery, pure copper is a living metal that develops its own unique character over time, making every piece as individual as the person wearing it.
At Ellington & Co., we use 99.9% pure copper and carefully craft each design with attention to every detail—from its weight and finish to its comfort and timeless style. Our jewellery is created to be worn every day and appreciated for years to come.
Because each piece is individually handcrafted, no two are exactly alike. Subtle variations are part of their character, reflecting the authenticity of genuine craftsmanship rather than mass production.
We believe jewellery should become part of your story—growing more personal with every wear and becoming a timeless piece you'll treasure for years.
Not because someone told her to. Not because it was fashionable. Simply because that's how she'd always done it.
"We called it old-fashioned.
She called it a tradition."
Her mother wore copper before her.
And her grandmother before that.
For generations, it was simply part of everyday life.
Something you put on each morning without giving it a second thought. When I was younger, I never understood why it mattered so much. Now I do.
It was never just about the bracelet.
It was about carrying a small piece of tradition with you every day.
A reminder that the things made to last are often the simplest.
That's the philosophy behind Ellington & Co. Every piece is handcrafted from 99.9% pure copper. No plating. No unnecessary coatings. Just genuine copper, made to be worn, appreciated, and passed down. The longer you wear it, the more it becomes your own.
Its colour changes. Its character grows. Its story becomes part of yours.
Some traditions never go out of style. Neither should the jewellery you wear.

Copper is a base metal, yes.
What you're paying for is 100% pure material, crafted by hand, one piece at a time — and a standard we've never compromised on.
We've kept full control over every piece in this collection because we refused to cut corners for volume. No mass production. No plating. No coatings.
Every piece is shaped, engraved, and finished by hand. When these are gone, there won't be more.
You can buy a copper-plated bracelet for a few dollars anywhere. This is something else.
Almost certainly because what you wore before wasn't solid copper.
The vast majority of copper jewelry sold online is copper-plated — a thin coating over a base metal, which means almost no real copper contact with your skin.
Every piece in our collection is 100% pure copper all the way through. No plating, no base metal, no coating. The difference between solid copper and plated copper against skin is significant, and most people notice it.
The other factor is consistency — pure copper is meant to be worn daily, not occasionally. Wear it every day for a month before you decide.
Yes. Full refund, no questions asked.
If a piece isn't right for you for any reason — it doesn't fit, it's not what you expected, or you simply changed your mind — send it back and I'll refund you completely.
I've spent many years building trust with people I've never met. I'm not going to change that in my last collection.
