Jewellery & Watch News
The return of blue skies, long grass, buzzing insects and blossoming flowers means only one thing: spring has officially sprung. It's a time of year that inspires adventure and creativity, and what better way to express those things that with some stunning springtime Whitby Jet jewellery. To help you find your next go-to accessory for the season, we've put together this spring edit with some of our favourite designer jewellery pieces that sing of spring and will herald your new season look.
The W Hamond Tuberose Jewellery Collection
If you’re looking for some springtime jewellery that can be worn effortlessly all day, every day then our Whitby Jet Tuberose jewellery collection is perfect. The series takes inspiration from flowers, particularly the delicacy and beauty of the Tuberose flower native to Mexico. These flowers are typically found in nature in white, but we have reinterpreted the feminine and elegant petals in black, handcrafting them from Whitby Jet. Many of the designs in the Whitby Jet Tuberose jewellery collection are set within sterling silver and feature matching silver elements for the flower’s stigma. You can also find several necklaces, rings and earrings finished in 9ct gold set with other precious gemstones like Blue John, lapis lazuli and white mother of pearl.
The W Hamond Bloom Jewellery Collection
Do you remember sitting on the school field as a child during the springtime, carefully combing through the grass with your fingers to find a rare four-leaf clover? It is memories like this that inspires our W Hamond Bloom jewellery collection, and good news, you don’t need to search the grass to find your own lucky clover this time. Our stunning Whitby Jet Bloom necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings are decorated with one or several four-leaf clovers, a symbol which across the world represents hope, faith, love and luck. The clovers are set in a choice of classic sterling silver or 9ct yellow gold with some of the designs featuring a unique ball detailing around the clover’s edge for a contemporary finish.
The W Hamond Flore Jewellery Collection
As one of our most popular designer jewellery collections all year round, it would be wrong not to include our stunning W Hamond Flore jewellery line into our spring edit. These beautifully handcrafted pieces are inspired by both architecture and nature, utilising coloured gemstones like Whitby Jet and placing them behind complex, precision cut filigree designs that allow the colours of the stone to peek through. Our favourite W Hamond Flore jewellery pieces are those crafted from sterling silver as the crispness of the metal contrasts beautifully to the dark hues of the Whitby Jet gemstone, creating a dramatic yet timeless look. You can choose from a wide range of Whitby Jet Flore necklaces, rings, earrings and rings in this collection.
The W Hamond Bumblebee Jewellery Collection
The queen of our skies during the springtime, the bumblebee is an important part of our ecosystem as it works hard to pollinate our food during the warmer seasons. In honour of our clever, yellow-and-black striped friends, we have created a special range of W Hamond Bumblebee jewellery decorated with intricate bumblebee motifs. Placed upon chains of sterling silver and 9ct yellow gold, the bees are handcrafted from a combination of locally sourced Whitby Jet and Baltic amber to create the iconic stripes and we’ve even added intricate filigree detailing on the wings. Our springtime Bumblebee jewellery isn’t the only insect-inspired jewellery we offer, with elegant dragonflies, spiders, butterflies and other insects available.
The W Hamond Tree of Life Jewellery Collection
Last up in our run-down of Whitby Jet jewellery for spring, we have the W Hamond Tree of Life jewellery collection. With the arrival of spring comes the return of nature, the budding of flowers and bright green leaves on the trees. Perfectly embodying this scene is our range of Tree of Life necklaces, rings, bracelets and earrings. The Tree of Life symbol takes inspiration from nature and its ever-evolving relationship with life on earth and for many represents luck and immortality. We have placed the symbol centre stage in our W Hamond Tree of Life jewellery collection using our famous Whitby Jet gemstone as the backdrop.
