Our Story

The Traw White Journey

Founded in 2012 by designer Katherine White, Traw White was born from a passion for creating exquisite jewelry that blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design.

The name 'Traw' comes from Katherine's family heritage, representing the Cornish word for 'path' or 'journey' – symbolizing the journey of each piece from conception to creation, and the personal journey it accompanies its wearer on.

What began as a small studio in London's Hatton Garden has grown into a respected name in luxury jewelry, known for distinctive designs that balance timeless elegance with modern sensibility.
