Cuttlefish bone casting:

The process of cuttlefish casting is an ancient sustainable technique which has been used by jewellers for hundreds of years. The cuttlefish bone is used as a mould making and casting material by pressing or carving into the bone. The molten silver is poured into the mould. What is created are beautiful textured items. These are then used to create unique jewellery pieces.

Hallmarking Rules:

British  Hallmarking laws standard state all silver items over 7.78 grams and gold over 1 gram will need to be hallmarked. The UK hallmarking consist of the standard marking for metal purity, the London assay mark, and my maker’s mark (KLR). Items under 7.78g in weight do not require a hallmark but the description needs to clearly state the metal types used.

Care of Jewellery:

My jewellery is handmade and will need to be cared for correctly to ensure longevity. It is recommended that jewellery be removed before bed, when exercising, gardening, or taking a bath. Do not swim in your jewellery as salt water and chlorine can tarnish the silver. Try to avoid contact with perfume, hairspray, lotions, makeup, or cleaning products.

To clean your jewellery it is recommended to use hot soapy water and a very soft toothbrush. Rinse and dry carefully and the shine up with a silver polish cloth. Please Note: this will not remove scratches.
