My Mantra Launches at Fabulous
A gift of jewellery is always a special one, and when that gift is also personalised in some way, it makes it extra special because it then becomes something that is unique to you. It could be your name, or your initial, but this season, Fabulous is taking personalisation that little bit further with the launch of My Mantra, where you can have your own personal mantra engraved on one of their lovely mantra pendants.

The idea behind the Mantra pendants is…

Jewellery Obsession – Lily Charmed
When it comes to my favourite type of jewellery, you will have to go a long way to find something I love as much as a charm bracelet or necklace. I think these say so much about the person wearing them – what they like, their hobbies, interests, family and loves.

Lily Charmed is a great British success story, a real cottage industry that was started at a kitchen table and is now stocked at a range of gift shops and jewellers, as well as…

Dower and Hall welcome the new season in sparkle
Eminent British jewellery designers Dower and Hall turned thoughts to the season of glitter and sparkle when they showcased their Autumn/Winter 2013 collection in London last month. Showcasing a collection that ranged from Vintage inspired pieces to the thoroughly modern, Dower and Hall showed just why they are celebrating 30 years in the business. Every single piece of jewellery was beautiful in its own way, but as with every collection, there were some standouts. My particular standout was the brand new Chintz collection, which is not available yet, but is sure to be very popular. A stunning mixture of sterling silver with an openwork design, paired with a sea-glass Opalite,…
