‘We spend most of our lives setting ourselves apart as individuals, distancing ourselves from who we are’ – Unknown

As Aniya Dunkley’s passion began to focus more on art and jewellery design, she found herself further adrift from her close network of family and friends.  She began to understand more clearly that time, as does everything else in nature, moves circularly and that within this circular flow of energy, all living things are connected. 

This collection is based on the concept of staying connected to one’s roots even as we evolve, never losing sight of the fact that we will always be one part of a greater whole.
