Robert Burns Jewellery Collection Photoshoot

Robert Burns Jewellery Collection was inspired by the poetry and love songs of Scotland's famous poet.  Sheila Kerr, a jewellery designer/maker, lives in Ayrshire and works from her harbourside studio in Irvine, Ayrshire - the heart of Burns country and it was while visiting the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum that she was inspired to create the 'Ae Fond Kiss' design.

International order to Italy

Through the medium of social media and more specifically Facebook, I received a commission to create a bride's tiara.  The bride to be had befriended me on Facebook and came from Salerno in Italy.  She contacted me via Facebook Chat and (in Italian) explained that she wished to order a bespoke headpiece for her wedding day. She chose the 'Ava' headpiece with a customised twist of amber coloured Swarovski Elements (c) crystals.

Using Google translate I was able to communicate in Italian too!  The headpiece was created and finally posted off in plenty of time.

Here I am in my studio with a variety of jewellery on display.  This is just a sample of what I make - a commissioned design will be unique to you - whether a bridal tiara or a sterling silver pendant.
