Not had a minute to post to the blog so here's an update:

Sheila Kerr Jewellery will be exhibiting in the Launch Gallery at the Jewellery and Watch Show, Birmingham which is part of the Spring Fair.

Dates are: 1st to 5th February, 2015.  This is an international Trade Fair with buyers from the UK and abroad.  We are hoping to launch into the global market - it's important to be there - you've got to be in it to win it! Thanks goes to North Ayrshire Council Business Development and my successful Grant Funding application which partially funds this project! Exciting times!

We will also be returning to the British Craft Trade Fair in Harrogate in April 2015 for our second year after a successful first year in the new designer's gallery in 2014.

The 10th of September saw Sheila Kerr Jewellery on the road by personal invitation from Marie Macklin of the Klin Group to exhibit and attend a Businesswomen's event and afternoon tea at the Two Fat Ladies, Glasgow. Guest Speaker was Nicola Sturgeon, Deputy First Minister for Scotland.

The 20th of September was the wedding day of one of our brides and she commissioned a pair of bespoke Cufflinks for her husband to be. Congratulations to the happy couple!

Silver Golf Collection in Turnberry Pro Shop

Sterling Silver Golf Collection on sale at Turnberry Pro Shop
As an existing supplier to Turnberry Hotel Shop I had an idea of creating a sterling silver collection aimed at Turnberry Golf Club.  I approached Turnberry and was delighted that they liked my idea and design.  After many months I have finally launched the collection and it is now on sale in the Professional's Shop in the Turnberry Club House.  It comprises of a silver ball marker, Cufflinks and Tie Slide.  Hallmarked with 'SK' maker's mark at the Edinburgh Assay Office.

Turnberry is a Golf Open Championshionship venue in Ayrshire, Scotland and the hotel and golf course has recently been purchased by Donald Trump.


Prestigious Golf Club secured as new outlet!

Sterling silver Turnberry Collection
Having designed a bespoke silver golf collection for Turnberry Golf Shop, Scotland, I had planned to approach another championship course.  I contacted the Professional at my chosen course and was delighted that he responded to my email.

As he was away for a few weeks we had arranged a meeting this morning.  I approached the Clubhouse with trepidation.  However, I had nothing to worry about,  the professional loved the Turnberry golf ball marker and Cufflinks and remarked on the high quality finish.  Of course a bespoke design service means that this new course logo will appear on the silver golf ball marker and Cufflinks.

So I best get to work on this design!  Announcement will be made within 3-4 weeks of the particular
course.

Bespoke wedding ring

I was approached by Martin as he wanted a specific design on the wedding ring for Anne.  They were to be married in Italy, in their favourite place in the Italian lakes, with the Alps surrounding this beautiful location.

I was sent some images of the skyline and with this information I created the ring in white gold with an overlay of the mountain range.  Needless to say - they were delighted

I also received the Popup stands which Martin had specially made - with images of the ring and matching pendant as well as 'Welcome to the wedding of Anne and Martin 19.02.2014!

What an amazing commission from an amazing couple!

Sky Stacking Ring

Sky Stacking Ring
This latest design was inspired by the gemstone 'blue goldstone'.  It is has been said to resemble the starry night sky with it's flecks of gold through the navy blue.

The 5 mm cabochon has been bezel set and is one of 4 individual rings which make up the set.

The heart ring represents 'love', the crescent moon has been hand hammered and the cylinder ring represents the full moon.

'I love the night sky with the moon and stars' is what this ring says.  It is very comfortable to wear and each ring can be worn separately or combined with other rings you might have.

Made with sterling silver and hallmarked with SK makee's mark from the Edinburgh Assay Office.

This is available to purchase online at:http://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/172554728/gemstone-silver-stacking-ring?ref=listing-shop

Silver 'A' Star Pendant Commission

Received an email regarding the commissioning of a silver pendant based on the customer's rough pencil drawing.  He had wanted the pendant created for his partner who had lost a special pendant some years previously.  This was for a surprise Christmas gift.  The original drawing was a Capital A but with 2 further points creating a star like design.  After a some tweaking of the original drawing the final design was agreed.  The images show the finished design in sterling silver - dimensions are approximately 25 mm with 18 inch sterling silver rope chain.


On completion of the work the customer collected the pendant which was presented in our Sheila Kerr luxury velvet gift box ready for Christmas Day.

He was delighted and said that it was exactly how he had pictured the finished design!

Silver Rings Pendant with personalised engraving - a special commission

Silver Rings Pendant
I received a phone call asking if I might create a unique bespoke commission - six sterling silver rings with each one having a specific name engraved onto each. The rings sit perfectly on top of each other when worn and the wearer may choose which ones to wear and the order worn.  Each ring is hallmarked with my 'SK' personal maker's mark from the Edinburgh Assay Office in Scotland.

This commission was created for Nick as a gift for his wife for Christmas 2013.  It was particularly poignant as Nick's wife had been seriously ill over the past year and he wanted to give her something really special with all her loved ones included - particularly those who had supported her through a most difficult time.  The commission was conducted online as although Nick lived locally, he wanted to make this a surprise but was able to collect the finished article. 

Testimonial received on receipt of the pendant:

My wife had a very difficult year with poor health and I decided to have a special piece of jewellery made for her as a Christmas present.  I found Sheila Kerr from an internet search of local bespoke jewellers.  A lot of my contact with Sheila was by email which was ideal for me and it didn't lessen the personal touch.  Sheila was very keen to provide exactly what I wanted and offered a lot of advice on size and composition.

The final result surpassed my expectations and delighted my wife.  I have no hesitation in recommending Sheila as a first class jewellery/artist with excellent customer focus and a pleasure to do business with.  I particularly liked her 'work in progress' email to keep me updated with progress.
