Silver Thistle Workshop Blog
Welcome to my Silver Thistle Workshop blog.
I share how I make my jewellery from recycled silver, the Scottish memories and landscapes behind my designs, and practical guidance about choosing handmade silver jewellery.
You will also find workshop updates, gemstone stories and a closer look at the traditional techniques I use in my Liverpool workshop.
How Can I Tell If Your Silver Jewellery Is Genuinely Handmade?
How can you check whether silver jewellery is genuinely handmade? I explain how I make my pieces, what small variations mean and what evidence to look for.
