Following a series of successful pop-up shops and retailing online, Brisbane brand Molten Store’s opened its first permanent flagship boutique on James Street in 2016. Four years later and the jewellery operation moved across the road, opening a larger apricot-hued store in 2020. Molten employs closed-loop recycling techniques to create its range of timeless pieces, collecting one-of-a-kind vintage pieces to refurbish as new or extracting the gemstones and melting the precious metals to create new finery. The new flagship showcases Molten’s heavenly range of one-of-a-kind pieces alongside new jewels made from reclaimed gold and diamonds. That’s not all – there is also be a by-appointment annex. The annex is the second by-appointment space for Molten after their Hamilton jewellery studio.
