Pottery pieces I've had for 20 years, each one of them considered and picked up because they'd caught my eye. The thing is, I have never used them and often they're put in a box but when I do find them again they instantly remind me of days out and therefore are my kind of souvenir. When we were little, our first experience of beachcombing was to find 'groatie buckies', my granny was an expert, she always had the most at the end of the day. In Caithness there are very few pieces of pottery or sea glass so anything other than shells are a real find. The pieces in the photo are from Lyndesfarne and Embo.
Are you looking for the perfect gift to give your fiance on your wedding day? Do you have a special place that means something to your both? Where you got engaged, your first holiday, your family's garden... I've been making jewellery incorporating customers stones for many year's now and it still feels special to me when I hand over a nicely polished pair of silver and stone cufflinks, or a pendant, ring or earrings. It doesn't need to be a fabulous colourful pebble, I've made mudstone from the bottom of a loch look nice! If you'd like me to make you a handcrafted, bespoke piece of jewellery for your wedding day, the process is very straight forward :- - Send me an quick email to confirm details of what you want me to make, the date it's required by and where to post it - Post me your stone or pebble - Payment will be requested once I've seen the stone and am confident it's possible to cut - I'll send it back to
