Aurora Charm

Aurora Charms beautifully combine high-quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship. Each charm is hand-finished in Ireland, reflecting the brand's dedication to quality and attention to detail. Aurora Charms was founded by Maria and Sandor, a couple who found inspiration in the beauty of the Northern Lights during a trip to Iceland. Their charms capture this magical essence, blending traditional Irish design with a modern aesthetic. Discover intricate Celtic knotwork alongside vibrant colored glass beads, elegant floral patterns, and adorable animal charms.
