FOR WOMEN WHO NEVER SKIP EARRINGS
Everything you need to know about East & Essex. Learn about our story, our pieces, brand facts, and press-ready assets.
East & Essex was born from a simple belief: the right pair of earrings can make all the difference. Our founder Elizabeth Puddicombe, created the brand after struggling to find statement earrings that were bold, functional enough to transition from day to night, and high quality without compromise. She saw a gap between costume jewellery that didn’t last and fine jewellery that felt too boring.
Our mission is simple: create statement earrings that make you feel as good as they look! We focus on giving classic designs a statement twist rather than following fleeting trends, creating standout pieces that are comfortable enough to wear all day and made to last for years. East & Essex brings thoughtful design and everyday confidence together for women who never skip earrings.
Golden Hour: Our very first piece. A bold, sun-inspired statement earring designed to carry you from day to night. Think: big, gold, warm, and glowing (like golden hour itself). Its sculptural form makes it a head turner, and the intentional construction keeps your lobes comfortable all day.
Signature Wave Hoop: Three wavy hoop stacks in one seamless piece. The ripple effect catches the light just right, creating movement without a single part actually moving. These hoops are designed to make a statement yet feel effortless enough for everyday wear.
