Postcards from Hayman Island: Behind the Scenes of the SARAH & SEBASTIAN Holiday Campaign

Postcards from Hayman Island: Behind the Scenes of the SARAH & SEBASTIAN Holiday Campaign

Come behind the scenes as our team travels to the Whitsundays to shoot our holiday campaign at the iconic InterContinental Resort on the sandy shores of Hayman Island.

Set against coral beaches, nostalgic architecture and crystalline water, SARAH & SEBASTIAN on Holiday was inspired by the art of the vacation – a reflection on leisure, ritual and the pastimes that keep us occupied on idyllic island days. We captured moments across a series of dreamy locations, hit the tennis courts for a rally, and submerged ourselves in one of the largest lagoon pools in the Southern Hemisphere.

The campaign showcases some of our most loved collections including iconic pieces from Gossamer, iridescent opals from Aurelia, oceanic sapphires in the Marine Engagement Collection, and the architectural precision of SUSPENSE.

At its heart, our holiday campaign celebrates the Australian festive season; the unique joy of a Christmas spent in the sun, and the beauty of giving and receiving gifts with deep meaning. We can’t wait for you to discover the campaign and join SARAH & SEBASTIAN on Holiday.

A Memory Made to Last: SARAH & SEBASTIAN’s Elevated Approach to Piercings for Children and Teens

A first piercing marks more than a moment, It becomes a lasting memory. An act of bravery, a spark of identity, a beginning. At SARAH & SEBASTIAN, this rite of passage is met with warmth, precision and uncompromising care. Piercings take place in our state-of-the-art Piercing Labs, using single-use sterile needles and jewellery crafted in solid 18-karat gold or platinum. These materials are chosen for their purity, comfort and compatibility with sensitive skin. It’s not simply a service, but a moment shaped by care from beginning to end. FOR CHILDREN Now welcoming children aged five and up, SARAH & SEBASTIAN’s Ear Alchemy experience is designed to feel calm, thoughtful and memorable. Each appointment is led by an expert piercer bringing clarity, warmth and a steady hand. A calm and connected moment — parents are encouraged to stay close, to ask freely, and to share in their child’s excitement. Prices for our recommended piercing jewellery begin at $260. For our younger clients, slightly larger styles are often the most suitable, offering greater stability for day-to-day movement while supporting safe healing. Our piercing service starts from $45 per ear lobe which includes your sterile saline aftercare spray, complimentary followup appointments and first downsize. To mark the occasion, each young client receives a Certificate of Achievement, along with their choice of an ocean-inspired sticker — thoughtful mementos to celebrate a moment they’ll remember for years to come. FOR TEENS As personal style matures, so too does the piercing experience. For teens, Ear Alchemy offers an introduction to self-expression that is refined, considered and tailored to the individual. Each appointment is thoughtfully composed and led by a piercer who pairs technical precision with a curatorial eye. Placements and jewellery are selected to suit anatomy, personality and lifestyle, with the same level of detail trusted by our adult clientele. AFTERCARE  The Ear Alchemy experience extends beyond the appointment, with dedicated aftercare to support safe and confident healing. Each client is offered a complimentary follow-up within four to eight weeks. During this appointment, healing is reviewed and the jewellery post professionally downsized. A clinical-grade Aftercare Guide is provided, with clear, considered steps for comfort and hygiene. Clients also receive a complimentary aftercare mist, developed to soothe and support recovery at home. Whether it’s a child’s first piercing or a teen’s expression of individuality, Ear Alchemy reflects the standard SARAH & SEBASTIAN is known for. Every detail is shaped by artistry, expertise and care.

SOLDERED: A New Intention

SOLDERED: A New Intention

SARAH & SEBASTIAN pioneered the SOLDERED experience in Australia, originating the concept of permanent jewellery through fine craftsmanship, using traditional tools with modern design. Guided by this philosophy, SOLDERED celebrates the union of permanence, sentiment and artistry. Within our architecturally designed spaces, each solid 18-karat gold soldered chain is fitted with precision and sealed in flame, an intimate gesture of connection and design. The ritual is both personal and enduring, transforming jewellery into something lived, lasting and deeply felt. Your browser does not support the video tag. To deepen the experience, we are excited to introduce SOLDERED Stories. Here, every soldered bracelet is a keepsake of memory and meaning, a symbol of the moment or intention it was created to honour. To celebrate the intention of the experience, each client receives a SOLDERED Story Card, an artefact of the moment they were Soldered and a reflection of the meaning behind their piece. Displayed in designer Studio Henry Wilson’s Aluminium Vide Poche, the wearer may choose to inscribe a date, word, or initials. a personal memento of the ritual. Each Story Card represents an intention: Connection, Milestone, Transformation and Legacy. Connection Celebrating love, friendship, and bonds that feel like home.   Milestone Marking what matters, another lap around the sun, a moment that endures.   Transformation Embracing change, a beginning, a shift, a gentle evolution.   Legacy Honouring what lasts, memories, connections and moments carried forward in gold.

Unveiling SARAH & SEBASTIAN’s New Mosman Home

We are proud to celebrate the reopening of our Mosman store on Sydney’s north shore. Reimagined in collaboration with architecture firm Richards Stanisich, the space preserves its original framework while unveiling a more immersive environment. Alongside our fine jewellery collections, the store offers a full suite of services, including bridal consultations, soldered bracelets, and for the first time in Mosman, our signature Ear Alchemy piercing experience. The new design is defined by sepia-green cork and seagrass green glass panelling, natural materials selected for their unique materiality and connection to the ocean. Extending the design language first established by Richards Stanisich in our Armadale flagship, Mosman evolves these defining characteristics into signature motifs that connect the two spaces. The result strikes a balance of domesticity and luxury, transforming the boutiques into intimate sanctuaries that feel both elevated and welcoming, as if inviting clients into our home.   “THE VISION FOR MOSMAN WAS TO CREATE A SPACE THAT FEELS ELEVATED YET HOMELY. MUCH LIKE STEPPING INTO A PRIVATE RESIDENCE, IT ENCOURAGES YOU TO STAY, EXPLORE AND EXPERIENCE THE FULL OFFERINGS OF OUR SERVICES.” —  SARAH & SEBASTIAN Co-Founder and Creative Director, Sarah Gittoes. On the design, interior architect and Richards Stanisich co-founder, Kirsten Stanisich, explains her focus was on creating a refined, immersive atmosphere through natural textures. Sepia-toned cork recalls the gentle drift of ocean kelp, silver gilding shimmers with light, and rippled glass adds depth and movement to the space.  The store unfolds with a sense of discovery. A linear display stretches the length of the interior, presenting our curated seasonal and signature collections, while bespoke details reveal subtle shifts in texture, form, and finish as you move through the space. We invite you to experience the new Mosman store and explore our world of fine jewellery and signature services here.
