Our Summer Collection: Tides
Inspired by the movement and magic of the sea, our new collection captures the beauty of the ever-changing tides.
There’s both comfort and excitement to be found in the rhythm of the waves. The sea is different from one place to another, from one moment to another. The ocean is a gateway to the world. The sea can also be relied on; the tides will always retreat and return.
Tides is a summer-celebration of freedom and adventure. With symbolic gemstones, meaningful motifs and natural textures, each piece becomes a connection to the sea and part of your own styling story.

Inspiration
When we began designing our Summer collection, one story kept coming back to us. There’s nowhere we long to be more than the beach on long, hot days of summer – but the sea also holds so much incredible symbolism and meaning.
Summer feels like an invitation to reconnect to nature. To slow down, to spend time outdoors, to press our feet into the sand. We imagined beach-combing, picking up treasures from the shoreline. These gifts of nature became the cornerstones of our story: fish, coral, shells.
The sea reminds us that everything shifts, and that’s part of life’s beauty. Let yourself be taken by the tide – you might end up somewhere magical…
Natural textures create a beautiful connection to all the incredible nature the tides reveal.
From gemstone-encrusted shells to tactile coral, we’ve had a lot of fun playing with forms and surface finishes.
The result is jewellery that feels like genuine treasures, washed up on a sunkissed shore!
At the heart of Tides are motifs inspired by the natural treasures found in and by the ocean.
Shells are a symbol of protection and feminine energy. Fish are a talisman of freedom and good fortune.
Coral represents growth and passion. The sun brings you joy, optimism and energy.
Together, they’re all you need for summer and beyond!
This collection has given us an amazing opportunity to play with beautiful and meaningful gemstones.
We’ve brought back summer favourites including turquoise and aquamarine, and added more unusual options like azurite, jade and blue opal.
Each stone reflects the colour of the sea and shore in all their different moods, and each one brings its own symbolism and properties for you to draw upon.
Brand new for this collection are our gorgeous carved gemstones charms.
These hand-carved motifs have a tactile quality that feels really special - artisanal and super cute, they add something a little different to any necklace you add them to!
They’re just the perfect little update to make your summer stacks feel more fun and bohemian.
We’ve brought back a Carrie Elizabeth summer-signature!
Anklets bring an individual, bohemian feel to any outfit. Our gorgeously glittery soleil chain is fast becoming a Summer ‘26 must have, and the Soleil anklet feels relaxed and luxurious whether barefoot on the beach or with a strappy little sandal.
It’s the finishing touch you didn’t know you needed, but soon won’t feel dressed without!
We wanted the collection to capture the freedom of summer dressing. There’s something about the sunshine that brings out the whimsy in everyone’s outfits, and these pieces lean into the same sense of fun.
Think: mix-and-match motifs, pops of colour, laid-back beads and gemstones. We’ve played with scale, including statement pieces and effortless, everyday jewels.
Expressive, relaxed and joyful to wear, Tides has everything you need to craft your own summer story…
We hope you love Tides as much as we do 🩵
We can't wait to see how you style your new pieces, and where you take them to this summer!
