    Responsibly Handmade, Premium Materials

    We make luxurious demi-fine jewellery so you can feel polished and put together in seconds. Effortless pieces consciously designed so they will work with everything in your wardrobe, every single day. 

    We want to play our part in reshaping the jewellery industry with sustainable recycled precious metals at a fair price, so you can feel great each time you wear.

    Each piece is handcrafted by artisans in Thailand and India in factories that share our values of sustainability, worker’s rights and fair working conditions. The factories are regularly audited, and two are members of the Responsible Jewellery Council.

    The Personal Touch

    Designed in Wales, by Claire and inspired by nature, history and architecture. From your own personal talismans or a gift for a loved one, the jewellery starts with a story that is yours to finish.

    ABOUT 14K GOLD VERMEIL

    Our gold vermeil jewellery is made with 14k solid gold (2.5 microns in every piece) layered on top of recycled 925 sterling silver. The finish is five times thicker than average gold plating, making your jewellery more durable and long-lasting.

    WHY WE USE PRECIOUS METALS 

    We believe you deserve high-quality jewellery designed for everyday wear so only use precious metals with no nickel, to create premium jewellery that is hypoallergenic and feels good to wear.

    And because it's important to us that every piece you purchase is not only beautiful but eco-friendly we use certified recycled silver. By using recycled precious metals, we reduce carbon emissions by two-thirds compared to traditional mining methods.

    OUR PROMISE

    We want you to feel confident wearing your jewellery daily, year after year, which is why we only use high quality precious metals and offer a 2-year warranty that covers every piece free of charge.

    (Click for more details about the warranty.)

    After that, we are offer a lifetime repairs service for a small fee, meaning your jewellery is ready to wear on repeat for years to come. 

    Replating

    Our vermeil plating is 2.5 microns, which means it is 5 times thicker than normal gold-plated jewellery. Making it waterproof and less likely to tarnish, but if you notice your jewellery losing colour over time we can replate for you for free.

    Repairing

    Where possible we will repair your jewellery and send it back to you like new. Our warranty covers manufacturing faults but not human error like chain snapping, but we are still happy to try to fix or replace broken pieces for a small fee.

    If the jewellery is not fixable and you’re still within your warranty, we can offer another piece of the same value or a voucher.

    Waterproof jewellery is the current trend with the big brands using stainless steel to create their jewellery.

    We think differently. We pride ourselves in using recycled precious metals of Sterling Silver and Gold Vermeil plating in all of our jewellery. It allows us to create intricate, detailed jewellery pieces full of texture and life.

    Our gold plating is 2.5 microns thick over recycled silver. This is 5 times thicker than normal gold plated jewellery. Each piece is finished with an e-coat for tarnish proof wear.

    While chemicals found in swimming pools or perfumes/creams can impact the plating or dull it, customers have worn Claire Hill Designs jewellery every day for years with no issues.

    We believe recycled precious metals and demi-fine jewellery is the perfect affordable way to have luxurious, long-lasting jewellery to wear daily. And if you have any issues you have a two-year warranty and we offer complimentary replating.

    So feel free to live in your jewellery.

    Our jewellery is made for gifting, whether to yourself or loved ones.

    We offer complimentary gift wrapping and hand written notes and can send direct to the recipient.

    Leave a note in checkout or email claire@clairehilldesigns.co.uk to opt into gift wrapping and let us know what you want the note to say.

    The jewellery is designed in Wales by Claire and then we work with two factories in Thailand who employ artisan to hand make the jewellery.

    They use lost wax casting to create the pieces.

    We have worked with the factories now for four years and they use no child/slave labour, promote women to the management level and have fair pay, working hours with breaks and paid holidays.

    One factory is a member of Responsible Jewellery Council and the other is Sedex audited.

    We also use platers in Hatton Garden and a chain factory in the UK to create some of our necklace chains..

    Handcrafted in recycled precious metals because you deserve luxury that doesn’t cost the earth. It’s time to live in your jewellery.
