As global attention turns toward the health of our oceans, I find myself thinking of Orkney’s coast. The shoreline has long been a place of quiet clarity for me – where smooth stones, fragments of shell, and salt-laced air offer a kind of steady presence. These small, weathered things remind me of what’s worth holding on to. They often find their way into my jewellery – shapes and textures lifted from the shore, carrying the calm and resilience of the coast.
Explore the Rockpool Collection
Ocean inspired jewellery is having a well-deserved moment, and I’m excited to share the latest additions to my Rockpool collection. These new pieces are shaped by one of the coast’s most iconic forms: the scallop shell. With its soft symmetry and strength shaped by the sea, the scallop has a quiet elegance that never fades. Its gentle curves and ridges feel like nature’s own poetry; timeless, enduring, and full of meaning. I’m drawn to it not just for its beauty, but for what it represents: journeys, protection, and the treasures we carry within. Each piece of this shell jewellery is a celebration of coastal life and a reminder of the stories the ocean leaves behind.
Scallop Shell Ring
Living beside the sea in Orkney, the ocean is more than just a backdrop – it’s a constant source of inspiration. From the rich marine life that thrives beneath the waves to the hidden treasures in its rockpools, every shell, shifting tide, and quiet underwater moment helps me shape the jewellery I create.
