Creating Statement Earrings, Colourful Necklaces – it’s Eco-Friendly Jewellery for Colourful People
About Our Work
Our designs combine vibrant colour palettes with clean, minimalist shapes to create bold statement pieces that are both lightweight and easy to wear. Each design is carefully crafted to balance eye-catching designs with everyday comfort, making them perfect for adding a burst of colour to any outfit.
Sustainability is a key part of the process. The leather is sourced from other makers and places where it would have gone to waste. By repurposing these materials, it not only reduces their environmental impact but also means designs are made in small batches and some are totally unique.
This thoughtful approach to production ensures each piece is unique, with an emphasis on quality, creativity, and craftsmanship. With a focus predominantly on earrings, there are also necklaces and accessories – all inspired by geometric forms, modern design, and a deep love of colour.
Designed for style-conscious individuals who value slow fashion and handmade products, these pieces offer a playful yet refined aesthetic. Despite their bold appearance, the jewellery is all very lightweight and comfortable, making it ideal for all-day or all-night wear.
Whether you’re searching for a colourful statement accessory, a unique gift, or something to elevate your everyday style – each item is a small work of wearable art. Designed with care, colour, and creativity at its core.
Explore the full range and discover jewellery that is original and expressive whilst minimising its environmental impact.

Jewellery & Ordering FAQs
Frequently asked questions about our jewellery and ordering
What are your shipping options?
The two main options are Royal Mail Tracked 24 or Tracked 48 depending on how quickly you need to get your order. These options mean the products are insured in case of loss or damage. If you would like an alternative delivery method please get in touch via email to discuss this.
Is the jewellery suitable for people with metal allergies?
The metal on all of our jewellery is stainless steel. This is usually a good option for people with metal allergies. Many of our customers who have reactions to other metals find our jewellery very comfortable and does not irritate them. It also doesn’t tarnish and is hardwearing.
Do you offer overseas delivery?
We currently only send orders within the UK but are exploring overseas shipping options so watch this space…
Do you offer custom or bespoke orders?
Yes, custom orders are very welcome! If you have a specific colour combination or design in mind, drop us a message to discuss things further.
What materials are used in your jewellery?
The pieces are made using high-quality leather offcuts, sourced from other makers and discarded remnants. This approach reduces waste and gives new life to beautiful materials. A leather sealant is used on the edges to give a smooth and durable finish. Most designs also include metal components with hypoallergenic findings and some have painted details.
How should I care for my jewellery?
To keep your jewellery looking its best, store it hanging up or flat in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid contact with water, perfumes, or oils. A gentle wipe with a soft, dry cloth is usually enough to clean leather and painted surfaces.
