A+A — Jewelry as Art, as Ally
Renee BishopShare
At Alchemy + Arcana, we craft jewelry, ritual tools, and ceremonial adornments that serve as both art and allies.
We believe that what we wear holds meaning, memory, and magick. Every piece we create carries intention from start to finish, born of astrological timing, sacred symbology, and the unique story of its future wearer. Our talismans are alive with purpose.
Chris is an experienced Goldsmith who has been honing his craft since graduating from ACAD in 2004. Over the years, his interest in astrology, the occult, and the metaphysical world has deepened. He believes the universe speaks to us in symbols, listening closely to the synchronicities that weave their way into his life. Guided by the stars, Chris works in harmony with cosmic timing both in his personal life, and his craft. He passionately brings a wealth of esoteric wisdom to every creation.
Renee is an Ordained Metaphysical Minister who believes every person carries a lighthouse within; a beacon of belonging and potential. Her love for the spiritual realm, the dreaming mind, and the natural world shapes the reverence brought to ritual. Her journey into the occult began in 2020, when she allowed herself to remember the transformative power of honouring life’s transitions through ceremony and intention, as well as discovered the profound impact metaphysical allies can have on the psyche. Renee weaves beauty and intention into ritual.
Together, we combine our skills and passions to invite each piece into the world through meaningful, intentional ritual.
What Sets Our Craft Apart
✨ Astrologically Attuned
Many of our pieces are created during auspicious celestial moments. By aligning our craft with the movement of the planets and stars, we create allies that support the wearer’s energy and expression, always in service of the highest good.
✨ Slow Craft, Sacred Craft
Each item is hand-built using time-honoured techniques and beautiful offerings of gratitude and ritual to the powers that be. We invite magick in, at its own pace.
✨ Unique Designs with Depth
Our pieces are anchored in the spirit of the election, designed to reflect cosmic energy in ways both enchanting and subtly powerful.
✨ Limited Runs & Living Artistry
We make limited quantities of each talisman, and no two pieces are ever the same. We listen as the piece reveals how it wishes to be finished, just as we learn to trust our own unfolding.
✨ Practical Magick
We craft homewares we delight in using, or in gifting. Shaped with intention, our handcrafted everyday items are imbued with magick and quiet reverence for our more-than-human allies.
Why We Create
Jewelry is a beautiful way to express ourselves, and to carry connection.
The intention of our creations is to connect you to the cosmos… and to your own becoming.
The world becomes ever more enchanted when we choose to notice the synchronicities that guide us. Wearing our work is an invitation to notice the harmony - as within, so without - the aligned timing, the symbols that echo, and the universe speaking in its own subtle language.
Your story is sacred. Wear the stars.
