About Lilac Lakes 

Based in Poole, Dorset.

 

I am passionate about creating earth-friendly sterling silver jewellery. I try to reduce my waste as much as possible, using recycled silver, and then repurposing my leftover silver into rings, pendants and embellishments for my designs. 

​

I began to teach myself silversmithing in 2021 and absolutely loved it, I can't describe how much it means to me when people love my jewellery. I kept practicing until May 2022, when I rebranded my previous crystal shop to 'Lilac Lakes', to sell my jewellery. At this time I created with crystals and sea glass, but began to focus solely on sea glass when I started to realise how much more I loved it! It also meant I had an excuse to go sea glass hunting more often!

I caught the bug for sea glass hunting! I love travelling to my local sea glass beach in Dorset to spend the day collecting pieces. I've made trips up to Seaham which is a fairly famous beach for sea glass, and plan to take lots more trips to other beaches in the UK. I also began to offer custom sea glass jewellery, using sea glass sent to me by the customer. This was very daunting at first but has quickly become a favourite of mine!

​

All our jewellery is made from recycled sterling silver and then posted in eco friendly packaging. The leftover silver from creating is repurposed into further jewellery to reduce our wastage as much as possible.
