Sustainable Practice & Responsible Sourcing
Every Lorn Jean piece is made in the UK—a deliberate commitment to sustaining local craftsmanship and preserving traditional techniques. This ensures full oversight across each stage of creation, from concept to casting and final polish.
The studio supports the preservation of British heritage craftsmanship while reducing environmental impact through limited transport and small-batch production. Each release is made with precision and intention, designed to endure through refined craftsmanship and thoughtful sourcing.

Process & UK Craftsmanship
Lost Wax Casting & Finishing
Each creation is shaped through an iterative sculptural process—designed, modelled, and refined before being cast through the lost wax method. This centuries-old technique allows for sculptural precision, preserving every fine detail in metal.
Once cast, each design returns to the studio for finishing by hand. Edges are softened, surfaces refined, and details brought into focus—ensuring that every piece holds a tactile presence shaped through time, patience, and craftsmanship.


Sterling Silver
Selected for clarity in form, sterling silver is an integral material in Lorn Jean’s compositions. X-ray silver is used in select pieces—reclaimed from medical film and refined in the UK through the AgAIN initiative. Recycled sterling silver is also used across the collection, balancing sculptural integrity with considered material sourcing.
18ct Gold
Solid 18ct gold is available for select designs—crafted for those who seek depth, luminosity, and weight in precious metal. A French vermeil option is also offered, using recycled sterling silver plated with 5 microns of 18ct gold—doubling the UK vermeil standard for durability and warmth.
A Considered Approach
Every design at Lorn Jean develops through an iterative sculptural process—sketched, modelled, refined, and reformed through material study. Forms are not rushed to resolution; they are shaped over time, informed by proportion, interaction, and conceptual intent.
This approach reflects the studio’s ongoing exploration of Material Poetics. A philosophy where form, material, and memory are distilled through process to create pieces that are both tactile and conceptual.
