Announcement
The perfect gift for beach lovers, colour fanatics and anyone inspired by nature and pattern. Colourful silver jewellery all designed and hand made by me in my little garden studio in Dorset, UK. I hand print and hand dye anodised aluminium with striking patterns in incredible colours and use that as well as lush sea glass to create one of a kind necklaces, earrings, rings and bracelets.
Deep blues, bright turquoises, gorgeous greens, vibrant pinks, opulent purples, rich reds and awesome oranges all blend perfectly with the sterling silver to create easy to wear everyday jewellery as well as more dramatic statement pieces.
A great way to add a pop of colour to your outfit or a thoughtful present for a birthday, anniversary, Christmas or another special occasion.
All with FREE UK shipping, unless otherwise stated.

5 out of 5 starsAnother stunning necklace from this amazingly talented seller. The colours are stunning and the whole ensemble sits beautifully. The customer service Arrabella provides is second to none and the packaging and presentation of my purchase is stunning. The only issue is when to stop browsing and ordering! I’ll be back. Cannot recommend highly enough 😊

Frequently asked questions
What is anodised aluminium?
Anodising is an electrochemical process by which you can add permanent durable pattern and colour to aluminium. I first print a pattern on to a sheet of unsealed aluminium using a variety of coloured inks. Next, I add anodising dyes to create a background colour to the pattern. Once the dyes are applied, the aluminium is then sealed by steam which creates the permanent pattern and vibrant colour.
Occasionally some discolouration or water marks may appear on the back of the aluminium. These occur naturally as part of the dyeing and sealing process and are unavoidable. They are never visible on the front of the jewellery but I like to think show the hand printed nature of the aluminium - perfectly imperfect if you like!
Why do you use sea glass?
I adore sea glass. Its bright luminous colour is a thing of joy. I tend to use glass that has been tumbled as I prefer the smoother more refined look it gets from being tumbled. The great thing about sea glass is that it does not come in uniform shapes. I relish the challenge of setting the glass in the silver. It is a lot more complicated to make the perfect outline for each shape than setting a uniformly round or oval stone. However, it is worth it. The result is that, like my hand dyed anodised aluminium designs, each piece of jewellery is unique.
By its nature, the sea glass may have small inclusions, tiny dents and imperfections in the glass. This is all part of each piece’s character and its unique beauty – perfectly imperfect.
Care instructions
To keep your jewellery looking in tip top condition:
Remove jewellery before washing.
Avoid contact with water, spray, perfume and chemicals.
Store your jewellery in acid free tissue paper to help prevent tarnishing.
Use a soft silver polishing cloth when needed (not on oxidised silver though)
If I commission a piece of jewellery not in stock, how long will it take to receive?
If you commission a piece of jewellery which is not in stock, I will email you before commencing work to discuss time scales. I aim to make an commission pieces within 1 to 2 weeks of the order although at busy times, this may be a little longer.
