About Under the Sky Design

Under the Sky Design

Sterling silver, gemstone and seaglass jewellery inspired, designed and handmade in the southern Lake District of England.

Hello! My name is Lindsay. I work from a tiny (and often very messy) desk in my bedroom. I enjoy making jewellery that is inspired by my surroundings and the night sky. I live on the southern edge of the Lake District, so I get a lot of my inspiration from the fells and the coast. Hares and stars have been a recurring theme over the last few years. At the moment I am designing a range inspired by my allotment.

I love working with silver and I like to use a lot of texture and add a splash of colour here and there with some sparkly stones. I also like working with seaglass - a couple of times a year I take my children to the north east coast and we spend a day or two collecting the amazing seaglass you can find there. I now have a huge stash of it waiting to be transformed into pendants.

I have found that silversmithing is a job where there is also something new to learn. I have recently been taught the ancient technique of Keum Boo so I am hoping to start using that soon to add some golden sparkle to my jewellery.
