Greetings! I'm Dee Marsh, lead designer and owner of Shilohs Way.
Our whanau of 4 lives on the Yugumbeh Lands of Gold Coast, Australia, with roots connecting us back to Gisborne, Wairoa, Wellington, and Taupo.
Shilohs Way Jewellery was born from a longing for the familiar comforts of home. Designing jewellery became the bridge to reconnect with my Māori heritage, serving as a personal avenue to express those deep-rooted feelings of home through contemporary wearable art.
Named after my beautiful daughter, Shiloh, our work embodies the essence of #contempronesian design, blending Maori heritage with futuristic design elements. As we step into the realm of designers, we are thankful to have you join us on this exciting journey. Your investment of time in our venture is truly appreciated.
Nga mihi nui, Dee"
