Behind The Brand
Hi! I'm Charlotte, the face behind Wild Silver Jewellery.
​
Welcome to my website!
I live in the beautiful little village of Croyde, on the North Devon Coast and have been designing and making jewellery for over 30 years, It all began at the age of 10 making beaded jewellery to sell to my friends and teachers at school! and has steadily progressed to where I am today, the owner and sole jewellery designer and maker at Wild Silver Jewellery.
My two favourite things to do are beach combing on my local beaches and walking through the beautiful Devon country lanes, both of which are heavily reflected in my shop. It’s full of leaves whose intricacy I have fallen in love with on my wanderings and beautiful shells that have caught my eye in the sand. My day job is in tourism, which tends to be very quiet through the winter, so I have been blessed to escape to warmer climes during the quieter months, where I spend a lot of my time searching for natural treasures and textures to bring home and replicate in my silver Jewellery.
Living in a rural, coastal village has meant that I have always felt a strong connection with nature, and this naturally progressed into an awareness of the need to protect our fragile natural environment, and then onto my undertaking of a degree in environmental studies with the Open University. I feel very fortunate in that I have been able to implement much of what I have leant in my studies into my jewellery making, combining and celebrating these two passions with the building of my environmentally conscious jewellery brand Wild Silver Jewellery.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read about Wild Silver Jewellery! Please have a further look through my 'about' pages to learn of the jewellery making process, and the steps I take to ensure environmental awareness and protection throughout every part of my business.
