View Our Jewellery Ranges

This Range of uniquely remodelled cutlery jewellery is all made in Sterling Silver(925). Where possible the original, historic hall marks are kept or some will have our own makers marks assayed in London.
This range of jewellery are all bespoke, one off pieces made using fine silver(999) sometimes embellished with gold leaf, cubic zirconia and even the occasional diamond
This range of jewellery are all made from sterling silver circulated coins. These are mostly UK, pre 1920 coins although occasionally other silver coins from around the world are used.
This range of one off pieces uses a combination of fused, dichroic, bullseye or iridised glass embellished with either
fine silver(999) or sterling silver(925)

The Law

Many people are unaware that it is actually illegal to sell or even describe something for sale as a precious metal in the UK without a full Set of hallmarks. These marks must be applied by an independent Assay Office.
There are also laws around altering already hallmarked pieces and using silver coins of the realm which is explained further in our spoon jewellery and coin rings sections.
A simple 925 or 999 stamp is not a hallmark and can be applied by anyone to any metal so does not guarantee that you are buying silver.
Items sold without an authentic hall mark would also be prohibited from resale in the future. In order to sell them on, they would either need to be hall marked or sold as white metal. This considerably reduces the value to less than the silver scrap weight of the item. Whilst this may seem a little unusual and to some makers an inconvenience, it is the law and is in place to protect the consumer.
Whilst some of our pieces are under the weight limit to legally require hall marking, we are proud to display the London Hall Mark on almost all of our pieces, guaranteeing to you the quality of our work and giving you something that can be handed down the generations.
