Made In Earth’s Founder, Creative Director and Head Designer, Bunny Bedi has always worked within a creative field, having worked as a chef for 10 years before establishing Made In Earth Australia in 1999.

It all began when Bunny came across a piece of Malachite and was instantly attracted to it. This gem, known as the stone of transformation, was what began his life-changing journey into the world of natural gemstones.

Inspired by the beauty of nature and the endless array of colors and patterns, Bunny showcases the gemstone as the centerpiece in each of his designs. Always striving for perfection, he has developed a strong reputation for high-quality gemstone jewelry and has a long list of retailers across Australia.

Opening a flagship jewelry gallery in America has been a vision of Bunny’s since visiting California on one of his many trips to the US. In 2011, he made this dream a reality with the launch of what would be the first of four Made In Earth jewelry galleries.

Bunny’s positivity, passion and drive are an inspiration to those around him and this energy is evident in the magical gallery spaces, exquisite jewelry and his knowledgeable team of stylists.

Beginning her journey with Made In Earth in January 2009, Stacey has seen Made In Earth flourish and blossom to become the prominent brand it is today.

Stacey’s drive and passion has seen her contribute to the success of the brand by working alongside Bunny designing unique collections, leading the social media/marketing campaigns, writing monthly feature-articles for an Australian jewelry magazine and is now using her knowledge to assist teaching at the Gemmological Association of Australia.

Stacey works closely with the teams in each gallery to help train and educate, implement procedures and design custom pieces with clients.
