OUR BRAND
We are a christian brand aimed at creating symbolic & sustainable jewellery and apparel. Our products are intended to be a unique & fun way to incorporate faith and positivity into your everyday life.
.
Our inspiration is drawn from scriptures & imagery in the bible, we weave it into our design process from the most subtle of touches to the big and bold designs.
Our goal is to create meaningful, conversation starter pieces, all while using ethically sourced and recycled materials.
Our jewellery is made using recycled metal such as sterling silver, stainless steel, and 18k gold plating. Our packaging is manufactured from eco friendly, recycled and biodegradable materials.
Here at Oh Divine we believe you shouldn't have to choose between faith and fashion or quality and sustainability.

OUR STORY
Oh Divine : Est. 2022
Est.
Oh Divine truly began its journey back in 2019. Our founder, feeling inspired by her travels, decided to design a small range of jewellery and apparel while living and working in Vietnam.
.
She discovered while living there a visible influence of the bible subtly woven within Vietnamese culture. An interesting and unexpected juxtaposition alongside the traditional buddhist temples typically expected in most asian cultures. This inspired her to recreate the feeling of tying together two unexpected elements, and so, the concept of 'fashion x faith' was born.
.
Oh Divine was founded on an incredibly modest amount in capital, painstakingly saved penny by penny & with you our customers love and support has been able to grow and bloom, piece by piece.
.
Over time we hope to continue (with inspiration from our customers and their favourite quotes and imagery from the bible) to create a ever growing, unique collection of lasting value, that will be meaningful to O.D's customers worldwide.

OUR FOUNDER
.
Raised in a small seaside town in Ireland, Brianna William's childhood was spent travelling in order to fundraise for her families non-profit charity. The charity focused on providing relief & the building of homes for victims of war and displacement (with a special emphasis on the protection of children) in southern Italy.
.
Brianna is bilingual, a university graduate with a bachelor honours in Music and Dance and certification in business management and marketing.
She is an internationally published model, featured in a ten page segment in Off Town Magazine NY, Elléments Magazine NY and multiple bridal publications. She has performed in Greece, Italy and Monaco, most notably for public figures such as the Dalai Lama & Mario Frangoulis, is the author of a children's book, an active equestrian and is the designer of our jewellery & apparel collections.
.
While living and working in Vietnam she had the opportunity to visit jewellery artisans in old quarter, Hanoi, where she took inspiration from their workmanship, this is where her passion for jewellery and design was developed.
.
In her travels to 20+ countries she was amazed to stumble upon consistent evidence of the existence of Jesus and the historical accuracy of the bible within different cultures. Whether Christian, Jewish, native american, muslim, hindu or buddhist, a multitude of cultures and texts showed evidence of the bibles factual value and historical accuracy. The mountain of documentation showing scientific, archaeological and literary evidence reaffirming the testimonies of the bible is astonishing.
.
It is the combination of all these experiences that shaped the idea of creating a brand with positive Christian imagery. Thus, Oh Divine was born, a mixture of modern trend combined with longstanding faith and of course positive symbolism too!

OUR PROCESS
Taking inspiration and making it a reality, Brianna uses her background in oil painting to create sketches for each of our designs, drawing them freehand allows the designs to evolve as they are sketched and for every little detail to be accounted for.
.
The final drawings are then turned into CAD's (computer-aided designs), which are then in turn made into wax moulds and brought to life after casting. Each design is handmade by artisans in Thailand, the UK or USA before they are sent to our hub for quality control and packaging.
.
It is after this lengthy process that these beautiful, thoughtful designs are then shared with you.
.
We hope that you will love and cherish these pieces as much as we do.
