Alison Moore Profile

Alison Moore Designs
Unique jewellery, handmade in Orkney

I am lucky enough to live and work on the beautiful Orkney islands, north Scotland. My influences are varied from the islands rich history, Viking heritage, nature and also the Arts & Crafts movement.

I regard myself as a smallholder sharing a couple of acres of Orkney with my husband, various animals a and plants. As smallholders we try and make things ourselves and have learnt to become very resourceful.

I play at other crafts but my real love is metal. I specialise in making jewellery from silver and copper. I make jewellery that I like to wear and so it has to be comfortable and able to be worn either casually or used to dress-up an outfit. I hope that you like my shop.

**************************************************************************************
Each item is individually hand crafted and finished to order, there may be slight variations in the item you receive compared with the listing picture. As copper and brass reacts with the air and will tarnish over time, I apply a small amount of wax to all my copper & brass items to slow down these reactions.

Each piece is handmade to order please allow 5-10 days before the item is shipped, although I do try to send sooner. If you need the item quicker, please send me a message and I will pull out all the stops to send asap

Each item will arrive professionally boxed.

I LOVE custom requests! Please feel free to make enquiries.

If you see something in the sold section that you are interested in purchasing please contact me to inquire about having that item re-created. I am always happy to re-create an item for you.

Duty charges – USA & Non-European countries
