How an Irish family reimagined its connection to the sea through gold and design
IRELAND, MAY 2026
At JCK 2026, Ocean Jewelry® introduces a more refined and expressive chapter for Deep Blue, its elevated fine jewelry line.
Raised along the Irish coast and shaped by a lifelong connection to the Atlantic, the family behind Ocean Jewelry® has always viewed the Ocean as more than a source of inspiration. At JCK 2026, that connection continues through Deep Blue by Ocean Jewelry®, a refined fine jewelry line where luminous stones, elegant gold forms and contemporary craftsmanship come together in a more expressive and elevated creative direction for the brand.
Deep Blue expands Ocean Jewelry®’s creative universe through a more refined and expressive perspective, balancing contemporary elegance with the emotional connection to nature that has always shaped the brand. Crafted in 14k gold and featuring lab-grown diamonds and sapphires, the line explores the contrast between light and depth through rich color, luminous materials and graceful forms. Delicate matching sets and bold statement necklaces come together in pieces designed to feel elegant, distinctive and deeply personal.
“Deep Blue represents an important evolution for Ocean,” said Shane Maher, CEO of Flaircraft. “Gold has always held a strong place in luxury jewelry, but for us, it was about finding a way to approach it while staying connected to the essence of what inspires our brand. These pieces feel elevated and expressive, while still carrying the depth, movement and emotion that define Ocean.”
As Ocean Jewelry® continues to strengthen its presence in the United States, JCK remains an important platform for connecting with retailers looking for collections with a distinctive creative perspective. Following award-winning recognition since its debut at the show in 2024 and editorial coverage from JCK’s Brittany Siminitz, the brand returns this year with a more confident and elevated expression of Deep Blue.
“The American market has always shown a strong emotional connection to both the Ocean and Irish heritage,” said Alan Clancy, Sales Director. “That’s something we’ve felt since the beginning through the way retailers and customers have responded to Ocean Jewelry®. With Deep Blue, we’re continuing that story through a more elevated expression of the brand that still feels authentic to who we are and where we come from.”
Beyond craftsmanship, Ocean’s connection to the natural world also extends into conservation efforts through its partnership with SeeTurtles.org, reflecting the brand’s ongoing commitment to protecting the environment that continues to inspire its collections.
