PLEASE NOTE
I AM UPDATING PRODUCT BOXES FOR JEWELLERY AND DECORATIONS WHICH WILL TAKE AWHILE, IF YOU PURCHASE YOU WILL RECEIVE YOUR ORDER IN THE NEW BOXES AS DESCRIBED BELOW.
Jewellery boxes are made from FSC®-certified cardboard and water-based glue. Jewellery box inserts are made from tall oil, a by-product of wood pulp industry. All paper, card, glue, inks and delivery boxes used are made from recycled materials.
I love collecting things discarded, lost, forgotten, damaged or just not wanted any more. My favourite places are rivers and beaches, but also find great things at recycling centres and charity shops. I’m lucky to live near the River Tees, Co Durham and often walk the banks picking up broken glass, pottery anything that can be cleaned and re-created into something new. Bits and bobs of lives all waiting to find new homes.
You have 14 days, from receipt, to notify the seller if you wish to cancel your order or exchange an item.
Unless faulty, the following types of items are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to your specific requirements; items which deteriorate quickly (e.g. food), personal items sold with a hygiene seal (cosmetics, underwear) in instances where the seal is broken; digital items.
Additional terms
Hand crafted Jewellery and framed artworks using pre loved and discarded ceramics. Ceramic material will show signs of wear and damage. Entire process is a creative experience from discovery to final picture, nothing planned or preconceived. All materials personally collected from river banks, charity shops, roadside, woods, recycle centres, beaches, wherever dropped, dumped or donated ceramics are found, cleaned and shaped into new stories. Each titled piece comes with bio of where the ceramic came from, known history, original information and when the artwork was created. Some ceramics collected are used as found, while others are cut randomly which will shape the final picture. Every piece is individual, nothing replicated, however, due to repetitive patterns in ceramics there will be some similarity but only through the ceramic material not in the final piece.
Please note that if your order is being posted outside mainland UK, you (or the recipient) may have to pay customs or VAT charges and a handling fee. The seller is not responsible for any charges or fees that may incur.

Stone discovered
Seaburn Beach, Tyne & Wear
October 2022
Recreated into
Decoration
November 2022
I visited Seaburn Beach on a bright sunny and windy day in October. Busy with families, kite flying and dogs playing in the sea this is a really popular spot. I’ve not really found the usual type of things while mud-larking in Seaburn, the beach is kept clean and there isn’t much washed up. However, away from the wide sands there’s plenty of seaweed covered rocks and large chunks of man made stone mixed with natural rocks.
Here I found some interesting bits and my favourite, stones covered in worm castings. I’m not keen on the word ‘worm’ so called them the casting stones. The patterns left by the worms are fascinating, varied and unique. This stone is exactly how I found it, all I’ve done is drilled a hole and sealed it with a non toxic eco friendly gloss. Although gloss, the finish isn’t highly shiny, the stone has absorbed the sealant which give it an attractive slight satin finish.
Delivered in packaging made from recycled materials, gift box, gift bag and short bio.
Measures approximately 50mm x 50mm (widest) x 5mm (widest)
Hanging on 50cm drop recycled twine.
