Vanda’s Belts

Vanda’s belts make a loud statement about the wearer. They are often huge, covering the whole waist, although smaller versions can be created for everyday wear.

Vanda often expresses the fun side of her creativity through her belts. There is a myriad of fascinating detail to explore, with lots of wild, imaginative ideas fused together. Clients have stated that they never tire of looking at their belts as there is a new secret waiting to be revealed in every corner as you look more closely.

Each belt is individually designed and handmade. No idea is ever repeated, unless specifically requested by a client.

Vanda is very flexible and will always find a solution to a client’s particular need. She enjoys challenges and is constantly seeking to break her own boundaries by inventing new ideas that require innovative techniques to bring them to life.

Vanda regularly interprets ideas generated by her clients, within the context of her ‘style’. She relishes the process of working with a client to exchange and explore design possibilities, using her art and imagination to make the client’s wishes come true and create a unique piece of jewellery.


“I loved Vanda’s jewellery the moment I saw it. She creates collages of memories, objets trouvés, curios, souvenirs and little treasures, mixed with old lace, velvet and tapestry. Each piece is stunning and unique and can be hung on the wall as a piece of art when you are not wearing it.”
