The legacy of a true pioneer

1942 - 2021

A passionate advocate for women’s rights, equality of opportunity and ethical design practices, Diana Porter established the brand in 1993, having completed her degree in Jewellery and Silversmithing in 1990.

Starting the business from her front living room aged 50, her works encapsulate women’s empowerment, individuality and meaning.

Diana sadly passed away in 2021, after a short illness.

Her legacy, both as a designer and as a pioneering woman, will never be forgotten.

Our Jewellery

Crafting identity through unique, contemporary design and thoughtful inscriptions, each piece is made in our Bristol workshop by our small team of artisan jewellers using Fairtrade gold and responsibly sourced gemstones.

The collections are based on moments derived from life's journey with all its twists and turns. Celebrating an organic flair, with textured finishes that artfully blend the natural beauty of the stones with luxurious touches, while honouring an ethical and sustainable design practice.

Diana’s studio now oversees the company and continues her legacy.

Ethically sourced, mindfully made

We are wholly committed to working in a sustainable, ethical way to craft jewellery that will be passed down through generations.

All our pieces use fairtrade gold, conflict-free stones, and recycled metals wherever possible.

As an employee-owned trust, we design and manufacture all Diana Porter jewellery in-house, reducing carbon footprint and supporting the local economy.

About the Studio

The Inspiration

The jewellery is a synthesis of Diana's life experience.

“At college I was inspired by ancient images of powerful women - So my work is about women and assertiveness.

It is about wisdom
It’s about togetherness whilst being separate
It's about change
It's about the spirit in all of us
It's about the design suiting the form;
about words being ambiguous; about challenging conventional ideas both in jewellery design and the way we organise our lives.
It's about tiny precious moments

When you wear one of my rings etched with 'on and on..' is it about eternity or interminability?

It's about not knowing and knowing...”

“You can't kill the spirit
She is like a mountain
Old and Strong
She goes on and on and on”
