HUGGED BY NATURE PRICING INFORMATION
In line with the Jewellers Academy Handmade and Wellpaid Pledge my general approach to pricing is to seek to be fair to those lovely people who seek to invest in my work, and to reflect the handmade nature of the work, and the time, skill, love and care that goes into each piece.
I am a signatory to the Handmade and Wellpaid Pledge which seeks to ensure fair pricing for makers reflective of quality handmade and artisan craftsmanship. You can find out more about the movement by clicking the link below
Ready to Wear/Made to Order
Prices for ready to wear and made to order items are clearly shown in each listing in my shop (Visit Shop).
Customised
If you like something that is available in the shop, but you would like it ‘tweaked’ in some way (e.g. a different colour of sea-glass, or a different chain, or a leaf that isn’t ‘on the list’ or a leather cord instread of a chain etc) - this is usually possible. Because it is likely to mean additional time, or buying in different materials there is likely to be some uplift in the pricing, but it will be in the same kind of ball-park as similar products in the shop. I will always provide a firm price before proceeding.
One-off Bespoke
Due to the one-off nature of bespoke work, and the fact that they are completely unique, it’s difficult to give a specific guide price - because it genuinely does depend on a number of variables: the amount of silver involved, the complexity of the design, the time it takes to make it and so on. And with bespoke you are also getting a much more personal service, where we collaborate to create the piece of jewellery that is the right piece for you/the person you are gifting it to. So the process is also more involved. The pricing therefore reflects all of this. I will always provide a quote for the work we agree on, before you make a final commitment to proceed.
As a rough guide you could expect pricing to start from around £350 for a bespoke silver piece.
