Summer has arrived

Stoneywell, a National trust property we visited on our journey 'up North!'


I have just returned from a relaxing week away with my family. We stayed in Aislaby just outside of Whitby in North Yorkshire. We met with friends in Whitby, We had a beach day at Sandsend, with sunshine and paddling. A bus trip to Robin hoods bay, beach combing for Jet at Staithes, where my husband found a beautiful piece of jet amongst the many pieces of coal we found!

I hope to include some Jet in my work in the Autumn.

For those who don't know, Jet is a special kind of fossilised wood, approximately 180 million years old.

Here is raw Jet, and a piece of polished Jet.

I can't wait to have a play with this amazing material.

Ooh! P.S!

For those who liked my triple raven pendant from many moons ago......

I have made more, they are yet to be hallmarked, but will be available on the website soon!


These are not yet finished, they will be oxidised and polished, and I may set black diamonds in the eyes!
