Inspired by my love of music, the one constant in my life. It has been such a huge part of my existence since I was a tiny tot, it never fails to lift my mood or be there when I need it. No judgement, just a calm and reassuring space as I meander through life and all the emotions that come with it. It's my therapy, and has been my savior so many times over the years.
My early childhood memories of my Dad playing the guitar have stayed with me. It's an instrument that connects us, he bought me my first guitar for my 30th and I am still yet to find the time to pick it up any where near enough to get good. The collection is a nod to both of my parents, my Mum for supporting me for years whilst I learned the violin and my Dad for always giving me the encouragement to be free.
So many people I speak to share the same beautiful stories and reasons why they play the instrument they do, and I really wanted to create something that reflects this. This is my homage to the music.
As you can probably tell, the collection is inspired by the humble guitar pick. I'm a sucker for clean lines and sculptural shapes. I also love how unisex the design is, this is a collection to be worn by anyone, and everyone, just like the music.
Hand carved in wax, I then and use the ancient lost wax casting technique to turn them into silver. Each piece is hand finished and polished to a mirror finish. They are then sent to the Birmingham Assay Office to be authenticated and hallmarked. Each piece is then stamped with my makers mark - PL, 925 for sterling silver, the anchor - to represent Birmingham Assay Office and the year it was made (currently the letter y). Each piece is then gift packaged in my branded boxes as pictured and sent out to you via post. I also offer local pick-up/drop off in Worcester and Kemerton just pop me a message to discuss further.

These pieces can also be made to custom specifications. If you love the design, but would like to discuss alternative metals, finishes, engraving or stone setting please get in touch and I would be happy to assist.
I always recommend keeping your jewellery in the box or cotton bag provided when not being worn to help keep your pieces looking their best. I also pack a small polishing cloth so you can spruce them up every now and then.
All my pieces come gift wrapped and packaged for that extra special feel.
