BEHIND THE BRAND


Millie Young
At Millie Young, jewellery is more than a bedazzling adornment — it is a ritual of self-love. Each piece is a quiet meditation on the intricacies of the world, a reminder to slow down, be present, and find beauty in the detailed absurdities that surround us. Jewellery is a skill I’ve been lovingly taught — a language through which I express love, freedom, connection, and ambition. Every creation is a direct extension of my heart and soul. Millie Young Jewellery is the embodiment of beauty in its most honest and striking form. Each piece is crafted to honour the radiance, strength, and abundant love that lives within every wearer.
My Story
My Name is Millie Young, I am originally from New Zealand and now have made my home on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula in Australia. I started making jewellery in 2022 when I had a desire to showcase the pureness of natures beauty within natural freshwater pearls. Following some time living overseas to explore my roots in the Middle East, I was inspired by the rawness of beauty and how it conveys an empowering confidence within. The opulence and radiance that surrounded the Middle East was not superficial and lived within the mortar. In the people, the stories and the culture of connection.
​
I soon moved my craft further and was lovingly taught and guided by Kristen Bentley in November 2024 through an epic in-depth practical jewellery course in Brunswick, Melbourne. This quickly inspired me to practice, learn and grow my jewellery skills to hand-craft beautiful pieces that often hero Natural and Australian lab-grown gemstones. My pieces have no creative confines and are often one-off. So enjoy them in all their glory! xx
