Hello and Welcome ... I'm Karina, and together with my husband, Michael, we are the “Kar” and the “Mic” of Karmic Star (the Star is for our daughter). We create artisan jewellery for people who are seeking unique and thoughtfully handcrafted treasures that are made with attention to detail, high quality materials, and positive intentions. From our hearts and hands to yours, we want our treasures to be the ones you reach for time and again because they make you feel amazing!
I am the jewellery artisan, and all of my creations begin as Australian-made ethically sourced 925 Sterling Silver wire and sheet. From this I make every component - settings, chain links, clasps, earring hooks - so you can be sure that each Karmic Star treasure is as individual as you are. Mike is the lapidary artisan, carefully and intuitively transforming rough stones into the shiny polished cabochons that are the centrepiece of our very special collection of collaborative Pendants.
Stones and crystals are the most wonderful materials to work with - to us they are so much more than simply inanimate objects, they are intriguing and beautiful to behold, and they all have their own unique energy. We take great care in selecting the stones that we use in our creations, choosing to source from local dealers and fossickers as much as we possibly can, because we love to hear the stories behind them just as much as we love to support other small businesses.
We adore what we do, and imbue that joy into everything we make. Whether you are seeking something meaningful for yourself, or a special gift, we hope that you will find a Karmic Star treasure that speaks to your soul.

Care instructions
Metal in all jewellery will tarnish over time - it's a natural process of oxidisation, and Sterling Silver can be brightened by gently wiping with a silver cloth.
Do not use chemical cleaners, and do not wear your jewellery while showering, swimming or exercising. Never spray perfume directly on your jewellery, or put on your jewellery too soon after applying body creams/oils.
This not only applies to the metal but more importantly the stones as some are softer (need more care from knocks and scratches) and some are more porous (can soak up oils/fragrances and discolour).
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can cause some stones to fade.
No refund/exchange can be given on damage caused by not heeding the above
