Jewellery & Watch News
We’re officially in July which means the weather has no choice but to give us what we want: sunshine! And with sunshine comes floaty dresses, short sleeved t-shirts and best of all, summer-time jewellery. Here are some of our favourite pieces of Whitby Jet jewellery suited to the summer months…
Whitby Jet Tree of Life Jewellery
With the arrival of summer comes the return of nature, the budding of flowers and bright green leaves on the trees. Perfectly matching with this is our Whitby Jet Tree of Life jewellery collection which takes inspiration from nature and its ever evolving relationship with life on earth. The symbol of the Tree of Life not only represents what’s outside but what’s inside us, our own personal development and individual beauty. Crafted from sterling silver and gold plating, the Whitby Jet Tree of Life jewellery can help you on our own personal journey this summer offering selections of pendants, earrings, and bracelets set with the Whitby Jet gemstone.
Whitby Jet Tuberose Jewellery
For jewellery that can be worn on its own for a timeless look or stacked together for a more statement finish, our Whitby Jet Tuberose jewellery collection is perfect. The series takes inspiration from flora, particularly the delicacy and beauty of the Tuberose flower native to Mexico. Normally found in nature in white, we have reinterpreted the feminine and elegant petals in black carefully handcrafted from Whitby Jet. Many of the designs in the Whitby Jet Tuberose jewellery collection are set within sterling silver and feature contrasting silver elements for the stigma. You can also find several necklaces, rings and earrings finished in 9ct gold and set with other precious gemstones like Blue John, lapis lazuli and white mother of pearl.
Whitby Jet Animal Jewellery
With the flourish of flora comes the arrival of fauna, and what better way to celebrate that than with stunning pieces of Whitby Jet jewellery handcrafted into animals. From dragonflies to frogs, owls to spiders, we have a huge range of animal-inspired jewellery for you to choose from. One of our favourite pieces is this Whitby Jet Honeybee brooch which dazzles with its combination of marcasite, Jet and garnet. The main setting is handcrafted from sterling silver and set with a large heart-shaped piece of Whitby Jet for the belly. For additional sparkle, marcasite is set into the bee’s wings while two red garnet gemstones add a touch of colour to the eyes.
Whitby Jet Lockets
Suited to every season of the year, our Whitby Jet lockets are the perfect finishing touch to an outfit. From the outside, they appear as classic sterling silver pendants adorned with a piece of Whitby Jet at the centre. On closer inspection however, the necklaces reveal small hinges which open up to reveal room for a photo or message inside. These romantic jewellery pieces are ideal gifts for a loved one; you could capture a memory from a special summer holiday inside. You can find Whitby Jet lockets in a variety of shapes including round lockets, heart shaped lockets and rectangle lockets all set with only the finest jet black gemstone.
Whitby Jet Ocean Jewellery
For days by the sea, enjoy one of our many examples of Whitby Jet Ocean jewellery. Each piece is a celebration of famous events, tourist attractions and creatures that put our Yorkshire town on the map, from nautical boat motifs inspired by the Whitby Regatta to anchor designs, whale fins and ammonite fossils. Some of our favourite pieces are the Whitby Jet Octopus necklaces which bring to life the mesmerising beauty of our eight legged sea-dwelling friends. We have carefully detailed sterling silver tentacles with realistic suckers and set them with rounded pieces of Whitby Jet which make it look as though the octopus has grabbed the gemstone from the sea.
