Perthshire Smoky Quartz
A sibling of Cairngorm Quartz, this is an exceptional Smoky Quartz which has been sourced from the Grampian Mountains range in Perth & Kinross. The quartz from this area can display a light smoky appearance through to slightly darker smoke with hints of golden colour. Clean stones produce fantastic fire and sparkle when facet cut! The Grampians have been designated as a National Nature Reserve since 1964, making these spectacular quartz specimens rare and highly desirable.

Scottish Gold
We work with a very small team of dedicated Gold Prospectors here in Scotland, in keeping with our low impact and ethical practices ethos. It's important to us that none of the people we work with source their gold using environmentally destructive methods, such as commercial gold mining.
Our Scottish Gold has been laboratory tested to verify a purity of approximately 18 carats. We hallmark at 14ct as it is the lowest we can legitimately stamp our gold - in reality, a single tiny Scottish Gold flake can vary from 14ct up to 22ct over its structure.
We prefer to leave our gold as is - we never add non-Scottish Gold to bring up the 'carat count', and our Scottish Gold is also completely natural - no toxic chemicals have been added to bring the gold to a specific purity.

Sterling Silver 925%
Why do silversmiths use 925% silver? Pure silver, measured at 999 parts per thousand, is too soft for practical use. To increase its hardness, silversmiths mix it with other metals. While purer silver has a higher polish, it is also less durable. Conversely, harder metals are more durable but tarnish more easily due to their lower silver content. Thus, the silver industry has established a standard of 925 parts per thousand for fine silver, known as "sterling silver."
