About Philip Thornton

Philip Thornton has been creating contemporary Jewellery most of his life, beginning at the Famous Cook St Market, then moving in to Wholesale throughout New Zealand, finally settling on the Hibiscus Coast where he exhibits at SilverdaleVillageMarket every Saturday 8am-1pm.

Philip sells only what he creates himself. Driven always to create something new, his love of beautiful gems, nature and the results of the Jewellers Arts on Precious Metal, allows him to create characteristic designs, beautiful and unusual finishes and Jewellery to aspire to!

Frequently Philip receives requests to create something special for a client, a family, a gift of love. His bespoke pieces are cherished by those who receive them.
