Focusing on our makers. Today focusing on the Corn

Focusing on our makers. Today focusing on the Cornish collection. They use four main metals in the making of the jewellery. Here they tel us about the metals and the processes.
Pewter jewellery, is a medium hard metal that ages well, developing a greyish patina over time. You can leave it to age (as many do) or use a polishing cloth and rub to bring back a lustrous shine. Bronze jewellery is a very hard metal that looks like gold when first seen. We only use copper and tin, referred to as “classic bronze”, to make it. Our ancestors used bronze to make swords and these were only superseded when iron was discovered. We cast our bronze using the lost wax process, due to its high melting point. Our Silver jewellery is made with Sterling Silver (925). Nearly as hard as bronze, it takes a polish well and is easily kept clean using Silver Dip or a polishing cloth. We make our silver jewellery using the lost wax process and then, after fettling, give each piece a final hand polish. Cornish tin jewellery is quite unique (at least ours is). The tin comes from a ship wrecked in 1863. It was originally smelted in Cornwall and carries an ancient pedigree not to be found elsewhere.

Focus on our makers. A large part of the Eyres Jew

Focus on our makers. A large part of the Eyres Jewellery collection is handcrafted in Cornwall.
The small family business was established nearly forty years ago. They are a great team of people to work with. Their jewellery is beautifully and lovingly hand crafted.
Each piece of St Justin jewellery and giftware is crafted by hand and eye in Cornwall, the South West extremity of Britain. This wild and beautiful land was home to the many native Celts who were driven away from the temperate midlands of Britain by invading European warriors, such as the Angles of Northern Germany. It is in places such as Cornwall, Wales, Ireland and Scotland that the art of the Celts and ancient Britons has survived, carved into stone tombs and discovered on pottery fragments and ornaments. The venerable alloy of pewter is made of 92% tin, with copper and antimony to harden it and enhance casting. During most of the 20th century the tin used to make pewter was mined in Cornwall where the majestic granite steam engine houses dominated the landscape. Today, sadly, Cornish tin mining is no more and the picturesque ruins of our industrial past add to the romance and mystery of Kernow.
Pewter rose in popularity during the Middle Ages, replacing wooden tableware in well-to-do households. Enduring and malleable, it acquires an attractive patina with age, and can be fashioned into almost any form desired. Unrivalled until the 19th century, pewter-ware was exported to all the corners of the world during the grand days of the British Empire. Its quiet dignity and venerable history makes it the material of choice for St Justin’s noble jewellery and gift-ware.
At St Justin, the distinguished tradition lives on. High quality pewter ingots are fused in a crucible and the molten metal is poured into the rubber moulds created from the artist’s original sculpture. After cooling and linishing, the items are hand-polished and painted by skilled craftspeople, before clips and other findings are spot-welded into position.
The result is a gift of great beauty and craftsmanship
