Summit Silver jewellery uses ethically sourced precious metals and is all handmade by me in my home studio.
Since its inception, my vision for Summit Silver was to utilise Cumbrian stone, rock and other natural materials - all collected from famous Lake District mountains, fells, lakes, rivers and the Cumbrian coastline. This is at the core of the business.
It's important to me to protect the Lake District. All the materials I collect for my work are carefully curated so I leave no trace on the landscape. I also donate 5% of all profits to The Cumbria Wildlife Trust, who's vital work protects and preserves the flora, fauna and funga of Cumbria.
If you're interested in learning about the unique geology of the Lake District, I can recommend grabbing a copy of The Lake District: Landscape and Geology which you can find a link to below.
I also create jewellery with traditional 'precious' gemstones and can offer a commission service for one-off, bespoke pieces of jewellery. Please get in touch to see how we can work together to design and make something special and unique.
