Information

All the jewellery is entirely made by hand therefore we like to consider ourselves to be a genuine ‘cottage industry’. We have a small dedicated team of women who work independently from home. Our skills and ages are wide ranging but we all share an appreciation of colour, craft and individuality.

The pieces are made from papers decorated with acrylic paints using a variety of printing, layering and gilding techniques. Sections of these are used to compose the different designs, making each piece slightly different from the next. Because of this exact replicas are unrealistic to achieve, however overall duplication is possible and the photographs on the site are a good representation of the general design and colour.

We finish the jewellery with a resistant lacquer to ensure that the surface is well protected and aesthetically pleasing. Without exception our products are durable and light to wear, making them a popular choice for many, particularly those who prefer larger pieces.

We also offer the option of ordering the earrings with a clip instead of a hook for those of you who don’t like the idea of body-piercing !
