Calling all jewellery lovers, music enthusiasts, and gift seekers! The highly anticipated collaboration collection, SUPERSTITION CLUB, by iconic New Zealand-born, now Los Angeles-based, singer song-writer Gin Wigmore and Sarah Cotterall of Silk & Steel, has launched! Partnering with her longtime friend, Sarah, Gin's long-held dream to create and wear her own jewellery designs has been fulfilled:
“My love for jewellery runs deep. It all fascinates me, from the intricately fine to the daringly bold. The pieces I have collected and worn over the years tell the larger story of who I am alongside a recurring daily thought of “how am I feeling and how can I express those feelings with the world around me?”
Collaborating closely with Sarah, Gin's designs seamlessly harmonise elements of boldness and intricacy. The result is a timeless capsule inspired by her passion for iconography, talismans, and her exploration of the delicate boundary between love and mortality. Each item presents an intriguing reinterpretation of conventional motifs and has been thoughtfully designed to complement one another, allowing the entire collection to be layered together and adorned alongside your personal jewellery pieces.
In this exclusive collaboration, Gin and Sarah are deeply dedicated to supporting causes that hold a special place in their hearts. An important aspect of this collection involves the launch of one-of-a-kind pieces, which will be auctioned, with all proceeds donated to charity. Within this capsule release, there will be four unique pieces inspired by Gin's "Hand in Hand" design, each to be auctioned off, and the entirety of the proceeds from these auctions will be contributed to Camp Sunshine.
About Superstition Club:
Named after Gin’s personal mantras and pre-show rituals, the idea was formed to turn her superstitions into a tiny collection of jewels and lucky charms to covet and collect. This collaboration consists of five unique and meaningful designs. The capsule’s three necklaces and two sets of earrings have been cast with mixed metals, and adorned with precious stones such as white topaz and crystals. These limited-edition pieces will be available in both gold and silver finishes.
“We all have them, those little ghosts we call superstitions that follow us around and soon become our essential mantras to be daring, bold and brave. My friend Sarah and I decided to form these little superstitions into a tiny collection of lovely jewels for you to enjoy. Welcome to our club, my friend. Here’s to all our superstitions.”

Committed to making a meaningful impact, Silk & Steel and Gin Wigmore will be auctioning off four unique ‘Hand in Hand’ necklaces. 100% of funds raised will be donated to support Camp Sunshine. These necklaces are seen not only as pieces of jewellery; but powerful symbols of unity and giving.
