The Milkies workshop was founded by Kasia Lew and her husband MichaΕ‚ in 2015. It quickly became a workplace for mothers not only in love with the idea of the company, but also united by a common life philosophy and attachment parenting.

We work together in a friendly, almost family atmosphere which makes us not only co-workers but also devoted friends. Almost all of us are parents, which is why we understand our customers’ expectations so well.

With full concentration, and utmost care and commitment, we make sure to turn your precious memories into beautiful jewellery.

The Milkies workshop is not just a workplace. It is a place where people who share similar life principles and are guided in life by intuition, warmth and kindness have met. A place where most of us are parents and we raise our children in accordance with the current of attachment parenting, mums breastfeed and dads carry their babies in a sling.

MILKIES IS A PLACE THAT WAS CREATED THANKS TO THE INCREDIBLE IMAGINATION, CREATIVITY AND PASSION OF KASIA LEW AND THE EXTRAORDINARY ORGANISATIONAL, MARKETING AND IT SKILLS OF HER HUSBAND, MICHAŁ.

Together they have created a place where all team members feel at home and our relationships go far beyond those of co-workers.

We work in a very positive, family atmosphere and many of us can freely call each other friends on whom we can always count.
This is what allows the entire Milkies team to well understand our customers’ needs, expectations and dreams.

WITH FULL CONCENTRATION, AND UTMOST CARE AND COMMITMENT, WE MAKE SURE TO TURN YOUR PRECIOUS MEMORIES INTO BEAUTIFUL AND DURABLE JEWELLERY. WE KNOW VERY WELL HOW MUCH IT CAN MEAN TO YOU.
MILKIES WAS CREATED FOR THE LOVE OF CLOSENESS.

And who else is in the Milkies team?

Joasia

Our master of pearls β€’ it is from Joasia’s hands that all the pearls for your bracelets, earrings, necklaces and rings come out.

Joasia is also a specialist in special orders for modular beads. Five layers of accessories, symmetrical distribution, fabric hidden inside? Joasia will roll up her sleeves and get to work! She is a woman of action, not only at work but also in her private life. Joasia radiates extraordinary calm and a positive attitude towards the world and people β€’ she believes that good deeds always come back.

In her free time, she indulges in her passion which certainly also influences her manual skills β€’ she embroiders and crochets. She loves plants, animals, summer and soul-soothing coastal landscapes.

Paulina

The materials you send come into her hands first β€’ Paulina receives them, marks them carefully, enters them into the system and checks whether the shipment complies with the order.

She is also responsible for preparing your materials for processing, laying them out and segregating them at the initial stage β€’ before they go to the casting shop and are incorporated into jewellery. Paulina regularly creates the most important document in our company β€’ the casting plan in which all orders from a given week are gathered along with detailed descriptions. The plan is printed at the end of each week, but before this happens it goes through a three-stage review. After printing it goes to the casting shop, that is the heart of our workshop, where your jewellery is made.

It is Paulina who is responsible for the entire process 😊 She has matter-of-fact attitude, is conscientious and at the same time extremely nice, and β€’ luckily for us β€’ technically gifted as when the electricity goes out and the Internet does not work, Paulina steps in and saves the company.

Karolina

Karolina receives finished pearls which her skilled hands drill, then polish and fix in settings.

Thanks to her precision, we have raised the technique of integrating pearls into settings to a high level so that the jewellery pleases your eyes for as long as possible without being damaged. Karolina is the mother of Antek and Mieszko, and in her free time she hones her skills by making handicrafts β€’ she crochets and weaves wonders from strings.

Karolina

A master of modular beads β€’ it is Karolina who receives them after casting, polishes them, fits them into appropriate settings and glues them together.

We rarely see Karolina without a smile, her positive energy fills the workshop with sunshine almost every day. What she enjoys most about her job, she admits, is the opportunity to participate in the process of creating unique, personal keepsakes for our customers.

She considers it a great privilege and honour that she is taking part in the process. Karolina is a single mother of a boy, she loves running, rollerblading, travelling and crocheting.

Ewa

Ewa is a person of many talents, able to organise work in the company on almost all positions.

Precision is her middle name β€’ it is Ewa who watches over the correct course of chemical processes, spotting any imperfection in time. She drills and polishes pearls, glues beads, finishes filled rings. She also takes care of engraving and the arrangement of materials and additions in the jewellery ordered by you, ensuring excellent quality of workmanship and careful reproduction of sketches you send.

Anna

She has been with the company from the beginning, and with a strong commitment she built the workshop together with Kasia and MichaΕ‚ β€’ Milkies is in fact her second home 😊 She is cordial and very professional, and we can count on her in every case.

She always offers valuable advice, listens, reorganises our work, helps to put out any fire and finalise even the most difficult order. Nothing is impossible for Anna.

Dominika

The most insightful member of the team β€’ she will catch every filling flaw or blemish on a pearl.

She ensures the highest quality of jewellery, every piece must go to her β€’ her presence is a guarantee of perfection. Sometimes it amazes us β€’ for Dominika it is enough to have a glance at our product or its photograph to be able to determine flawlessly in a second what was hidden inside, what is the sheen of a pearl or if there really is a tooth in a medallion.

Her thoroughness is not only a trait acquired through her work at Milkies, but above all a token of respect for all breastfeeding mothers. Dominica’s son was born in the 32nd week of pregnancy, and her milky way was full of challenges and struggles for lactation.

Thanks to her determination, Dominika knows how important every drop of milk is to a breastfeeding mother and what value it will have when preserved in a commemorative piece of jewellery.

Marta

Marta β€’ the queen of patience and diligence. At Milkies she oversees one of the final stages before orders are dispatched β€’ she handles the assembly of your jewellery.

She combines all the elements into a delightful whole and it gives her incredible satisfaction πŸ˜‰ Milkies is not just a job for her, she treats this place like her second home. Privately she is a mother of two (and soon three!) children and two angels, and a happy wife. She loves dancing which she has trained regularly for years.

Her favourite way of spending free time is with her family on walks or bicycle trips. She loves every kind of travel, but her heart beats faster especially at the thought of mountain hikes.

Being an optimist, she sees the good in everyday life and strives most of all to be β€’ simply β€’ happy and not to regret anything.

Ola

Ola is the last person to see your wonders before shipment β€’ she is responsible for preparing them before they reach you!

She wipes down each element, carefully arranges them on sponges and in boxes, packs them into pre-prepared envelopes, checks that all the details definitely match, and then sends the packages. Ola knows full well that every order is one-of-a-kind and loves getting to know your unique stories.

She is happy to be involved in the process of preserving your most precious memories, and the fact that you entrust them to us is something she is proud of. Privately Ola is the mother to Peter and happily married. She loves long walks in the woods with her family, cooking and handicraft.

Emilia

Like no one else, in her photographs she captures your extraordinary stories as well as emotions accompanying your keepsakes. The Milkies team is like a family to her, full of support and smiles, like a second home where she can creatively fulfil herself and do what she loves most.

Jagoda

Milkies copywriter and social media specialist.

She puts into words the emotions that accompany your stories, often shedding a tear herself πŸ˜‰ She has been writing for as long as she can remember, and creating for Milkies gives her great pleasure because she knows that her words do not form descriptions of ordinary jewellery β€’ there are extraordinary, personal stories behind them, and those are the ones she likes to write about the most.
