Millom, Cumbria

Silver Oak Tree started from a taster class at an art gallery which I treated myself to for my birthday. I always struggled to find silver jewellery that I liked and was simple without looking cheap. It was a revelation!

Making jewellery which starts life as clay until it’s fired was startling in a ‘I can do so much with this’ even though my style is logical. Fine silver clay, fire it and ta da, a fine silver in its hardened form comes out.

Since moving back to Cumbria, I have taken my roots on board to my making so have designed some agricultural/farming related makes. My style is simple, with clean lines and logical. It’s not to everyone’s taste but I enjoy learning with each and every piece of fine silver item I make.

We are an online homeware and gift shop that we are running from our small family farm in Cumbria.

We hoped that we could start our own online shop to help people find the perfect gift for their loved ones, or to treat themselves. We are really pleased to be stocking a variety of locally made products from other small businesses.

We are inspired by our passion for farming and nature and hope to bring this into the stock we choose to sell. We are trying to source the best, most environmentally friendly packaging we can to post our products in.

Our name came from our two lovely bucket fed calves Maisie and Nora. They are beef shorthorn cross and both have lovely friendly personalities.
