Justine Nettleton - 830 Deg Jewellery
Justine Nettleton is an all-round creative talent. She works from her home, studio and garden shed in Nottingham, with “creative confetti everywhere”. By her own admission, she is “always busy with something new”
Justine’s beautiful enamel jewellery uses copper and has a painterly quality in which colour plays a key role.
Justine individually handcrafts her earrings using copper and enamel which is then fired in a kiln at 830 degrees. Each pair is individually handmade with impressed motifs and patterns so no two pairs will be exactly the same. They hang on rose gold plated earring hooks for pierced ears.
Please note that these earrings come on a card and are not boxed to reduce packaging waste.

Sheila Read
Sheila creates simple and elegant jewellery, inspired by industrial museums.
She manages to catch a small snap shop of tiny parts then develope them into crisp clean lines using precious metals. These lines are often softened with the addition of wood from a sustainable source.
The majority of pieces are hallmarked with SR and the Birmingham assay mark.
This elegant and unique jewellery is lovingly and skilfully designed and made by hand and we are proud to showcase Sheila's work in our shop.
If you are unfamiliar with Sheila's work then visit the shop up at Strelley Hall, Nottingham to see for yourself.

Jane Clarke
Jane has always had a creative side which is reflected in her resume of job experiences including floristry, window dressing and fashion / beauty consultancy. The common link though is the love of working with colour and form.
Jane hand wraps links and clasps used in her jewellery which gives her complete control over the quality of her designs and removes the restriction of ‘off the shelf’ findings.
Many of Jane’s designs are one of a kind so if you see something you like, seize the day! As we cannot guarantee you will see the same piece on your next visit.
Jane has also done a lot of commissioned jewellery to compliment a special outfit, incorporate birthstones and wedding jewellery for brides and bridesmaids, matching stones to colour schemes and all at competitive prices.
Consultations can be arranged through the shop. Just ask
Jane also teaches jeweller techniques using Polymer Clay in our workshop room – suitable for all levels, from those who have never seen polymer clay before to those who perhaps want to learn some new techniques – why not give it a try?

Chris and Sarah of Chris's Fork Emporium specialises in turning antique and unwanted cutlery into new uses;
Chris and Sarah use only cutlery manufactured from the 1900's through to the 1950's and so the intricate and beautiful designs many of which are influenced by the Art Deco and Art Nouveau movement
When you see the beautiful designs it's difficult to remember that these pieces started life as mundane, everyday objects such as spoons, forks and knives
