Minimalist Shopify Jewellery Store

I want a sleek, distraction-free Shopify store that lets my jewellery pieces do the talking. The look should be airy, monochrome, and effortless on both desktop and mobile, with fast load times and intuitive navigation.

Here’s what I need from you:
• Install and customise a minimalist Shopify theme (or build a lightweight custom one in Liquid/CSS) that keeps plenty of white space and focuses on high-resolution product imagery.
• Configure collections, menus, and up to 30 products with variants, descriptions, and metadata.
• Set up core Shopify settings—taxes, shipping zones, payment gateway—and make sure the entire checkout flow works flawlessly.
• Optimise for speed and on-page SEO, including alt tags, meta titles, and a simple blog layout for future content.
• Add essential apps only where they add value (image compression, email capture, basic reviews), keeping the store lean.
• Provide a short video or written hand-over explaining how I can update products and pages on my own.

Acceptance criteria: the site scores “good” on Shopify’s built-in speed test, every link and form is functional, and the checkout processes a live test order from cart to receipt without errors.

When you reply, please share two or three minimalist Shopify sites you’ve built, note whether you customised an existing theme or coded from scratch, and give me a realistic timeline. I’m ready to supply copy and imagery right away and would like to launch as soon as the store meets the standards above.
