Hallmarking
It is law in the UK for Sterling silver jewellery items weighing over 7.78g to be hallmarked by an Assay Office before sale.
I carefully check and weigh each item to ensure I adhere to this law.
​
The majority of my jewellery weighs under 7.78g, and is unhallmarked.
Any item exceeding this weight will be hallmarked.
I am registered with the Sheffield Assay Office.
​
If you would like your item hallmarked, please contact me via the contact form.
There will be an added fee of £30 plus a wait of at least 4 weeks.
​
​
My main supplier for materials is Cookson Gold, who are a well established and well trusted UK company who source quality Sterling silver and gold.
I uses eco silver where possible, this is an environmentally friendly option as the silver is 100% recycled.

I also use Kernowern Craft for some silver parts and gemstones.
