Handcrafted bridal jewellery and accessories, made with love in New Zealand

Hello, I’m Lynda — the hands and heart behind CrystalandCord.

I’m based in Hamilton, in the beautiful Waikato region of New Zealand, where I design and create fashion and wedding jewellery that feels personal, meaningful, and made for life’s special moments. Whether it’s a bride getting ready for her wedding day, bridesmaids standing close by, or someone simply marking an occasion close to their heart, I truly believe jewellery should feel like it was made just for you — because often, it is.

My journey started 20 years ago when I made my very first piece of jewellery for my own wedding. I didn’t realise it at the time, but that one handmade piece quietly set everything in motion for what I do today.

My style blends modern romance with timeless elegance, and I’m especially drawn to pearls, crystals, and delicate detailing. Many of my pieces are made to order, and I absolutely love creating custom designs — whether that’s a matching bridal party set, a pair of statement earrings, or a one-of-a-kind hairpiece for a garden wedding. Bringing someone’s vision to life is one of my favourite parts of what I do.

💫 Why I do what I do
I know how much heart goes into these moments — the excitement, the anticipation, and all the little details that matter so deeply. It’s a real privilege to play even a small part in that journey. I’m always so grateful when brides share their wedding photos with me and I see my pieces being worn on such an important day. So often, they become keepsakes long after the celebration has passed.

Everything I create is made one piece at a time, with care and attention to detail. I choose quality materials and work thoughtfully, because I want each piece to feel special and lasting. I also care deeply about creating in a more mindful way — choosing designs that are made to be loved for years, not just for a moment.

🌸 Made for moments that matter
Whether you’re looking for your perfect bridal earrings, a meaningful gift, or something custom to complete your look, I’d genuinely love to help.

And if you’re not quite sure where to start, that’s completely fine too — just reach out. I’m always happy to chat, share ideas, and make the process feel easy, relaxed, and enjoyable.

With warmest wishes,
