Our story
Ornare The Label was founded in 2022 and is a proudly female owned and led business.
Co-founders Marisa Suter and Jacinta Capelli’s friendship spans back over thirty years. Childhood friends turned business partners, Marisa and Jacinta reside in the sunny coastal city of Perth, Western Australia.
Finding themselves on parental leave at the same time, with their newborns arriving less than 3 weeks apart, Marisa and Jacinta seized the opportunity to realise their vision of creating a fashion jewellery label which reflected their own personal styles.
Every Ornare The Label piece is designed in-house by Marisa and Jacinta, and so each design is heavily influenced by their shared Italian heritage, the natural beauty of the Australian coastline, and admiration of high fashion jewellery of the 80s and 90s.
Derived from the Italian word, Ornare translates to “to adorn, to decorate, to embellish”.
The essence of this word aligns with our belief in the transformative role jewellery has within our lives.
Our jewellery
Every Ornare The Label design bears a baroque, luxurious aesthetic that feels contemporary yet also like a timeless piece of treasure.
Always fun, vibrant and bold, Ornare The Label jewellery is designed to stand out, and be worn on any occasion.
Each design is brought to life by skilled artisans who craft in small, sustainable quantities using high quality materials such as natural semi-precious gemstones, crystals, and micron thick gold-plated brass and 925 silver.
Ornare The Label jewellery is handmade, making each piece truly unique and one of a kind.
Our promise
At Ornare The Label, sustainability is paramount. We are dedicated to reducing our impact on the planet as much as we can.
We are staunchly anti-fast fashion and aim to create timeless jewellery that transcends seasons, trends and fads. In a world full of factory mass-produced accessories, Ornare The Label proudly deviates from this by putting trust in skilled artisans who create our pieces using high quality materials in small, sustainable quantities.
Our pieces are handcrafted and made with micron thick plating which provides superior corrosion protection to traditional plating.
