Talismans for Everyday Ritual

"Hatreds Never Cease With Hatreds in This World; Only With Love Can They Cease"— Buddha

"Hatreds Never Cease With Hatreds in This World; Only With Love Can They Cease"— Buddha

These words sit at the heart of LOVE & HATRED, a reminder that the choice to love is the most radical act of all. Handmade in Australia since 1983, each talisman is created as a quiet vow to soften where the world has hardened and to answer hurt with presence, patience and care.

Maybe we’re from the same star.”

Where Jewellery Becomes a Return to Love

About LOVE & HATRED

Founded in Australia in 1983, LOVE & HATRED is a house of symbolic jewellery where myth, spirit and design meet. Guided by Giovanni D’Ercole, each talisman is handcrafted as a vessel for protection, devotion and identity and created to be lived in, loved and passed on.

From Myth to Talisman

Our Creative Process

Every piece begins with Giovanni’s belief in the mythology of jewellery as powerful talismans of love, hope and passion. In our Byron Bay studio, we work closely with metals and stones, carving and casting by hand so that each design feels protective and alive.
