A Goodbye and a Thank You
For as long as I remember, I’ve shared my life with animals.
From muddy paws on the kitchen floor, soft snores by my feet to quiet goodbyes at the vet’s office, they were always there, through every part of life.
I started Paw Atelier because I couldn’t bear to let those moments slip away. I wanted something that held these moments close. A little paw pressed in silver, a name that still makes you smile.
Originating in the artisan town of Maleny in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast hinterland, Now, 33 years later I'm retiring. These final collections are the last chapter of something that’s meant the world to me. Each piece is made with care, for men and women like me who know the bond we share with our pets is anything but small.
Thank you for letting me be part of your stories.

The passion that started it all
Every piece I make begins with a feeling.
Paw Atelier was born from my love for animals, and the quiet bond we share with them. After losing my own dog 33 years ago, I searched for something simple and beautiful to keep close, and couldn’t find it. So I created it.
Up until today, every design I offer is made with that same intention: to honour the love, memories, and connection you carry.
- Thoughtful craftsmanship
- Made to last
- Loved by thousands of pet families in Australia

Yes, They Are Named After Hobbits
Haha. But seriously, this is such a cute bracelet. Lightweight but doesn't feel cheap. I almost didn’t order because I wasn’t sure if the engraving would be readable, well it is! It’s clear and both names came out perfect. Maybe a necklace next?

Exactly What I Needed
I was nervous to order online, but I am so glad I did. The quality is lovely, and the adjustable chain makes it easy to wear. My grandchildren even commented on how pretty it looks.

My keychain with my dog's paw prints brings a smile to my face every morning. It's a beautiful way to carry a little piece of my best buddies with me. Thank you for this heartfelt piece, love it!

The Perfect Gift
I bought a bracelet for my old sisters dogs and she cried when she opened it! The custom engraving was a beautiful touch, and the quality is stunning. Paw Atelier has a customer for life.

A Little Piece of Her Stays With Me
I lost my cat Luna a few months ago and I wasn’t ready to let go. This necklace helps more than I expected. It’s beautiful and the green gem actually looks like her eyes, that made me tear up.. But love it!
Carolyn Johnson
Better Than I Expected
The bracelet is so cute. Each little paw stands for one of my dogs. I was nervous about ordering something customized online, but the shipping was faster than it didn't disappoint at all! My daughter cried when she saw it, she ordered one too!

Five Names, One Heart
I was a little nervous ordering something personalized, but it turned out even better than I hoped. I have five dogs and their names are still perfectly readable, So I wear it all the time now, love it!

My Four Little Shadows
I wasn't sure if the necklace would actually look like something I'd wear, I figured it might be more of a novelty. But honestly? It’s now my favorite piece and everyone who's seen it has asked me where I got it. I love having my cats close to me

A Beautiful Way to Celebrate My Boys
I bought this as a gift after seeing how many people loved theirs, and I'm glad I did. The necklace has all of my dogs’ names on it and just makes me smile wearing it. The quality is lovely and it's a daily reminder of how lucky I am to have them.
