A change to our opening days

Please be aware that Thursdays from 24th July will be workshop only days. This means that the shop will be closed as we will be busy completing the many commissions, remodels and repairs we have currently underway. As this is an increasing part of our business we have decided to initially trial this for the summer months. We apologise for any inconvenience and if this causes you significant difficulty we may be able to organise a pre-booked appointment on those days.

Birthstone of the month

The traditional birthstone for August is the leafy green peridot, its vibrant colour reminding us of the natural world. It is formally known as the mineral olivine. It carries a rich history, prized by ancient Egyptians and the Romans who called it an “evening emerald” as its colour and sparkle can still be seen in low light. It is associated with positive energy, good luck and prosperity. It is also believed to offer healing properties, protect against negative emotions and aid sleeping.

Below are some photos of our perodot collection. More examples can be found on our website
