Photo Accuracy and Representation
Each forged item is subtly unique. The photos here are representative. I am happy to photograph the items that are available before shipping, if you would like to choose yours.
Processing times
Our work is hand made. This means that with most of what we sell, we need a little time to make it for you. Each product in our shop is marked either as "Ready to Ship" or "Made to Order"
Ready to ship
These are items we have ready made and short of adding the colour of cord you choose and wrapping them up for the post, require no longer than a day to send. Providing the post office is open.
Made to Order -Iron
Items made out of iron or any items that require a customisations, like an engraving or silver inlay are typically completed in 2 to 3 days. If there are any unforeseen delays, then I will be in contact with an updated estimate.
Made to Order - Silver
These take the longest. With silver items we have to send them to London to be assayed and officially hallmarked. How long this service takes, depends on their workload and mine, as I usually need to make a few extra silver items to bring the individual hallmarking cost down. For this we like to reserve 2 to 4 weeks.

Some of our couriers offer a Delivery Duty Paid service. This means that customs duties and fees are paid in advance, resulting in a much quicker delivery. I am testing this out. If you are interested in this, please leave me a note at checkout.

Safety Instructions
Intended for Adults:
These products are not designed for children.
Jewellery with pointy or heavy elements (e.g., spear, arrow pendants, pennanular brooches) should not be worn during vigorous activity, sports, or inverted movements, as they may cause injury.
Use only as intended. Do not modify or repurpose components.
Do not ingest or place components in the mouth. Small parts can pose a choking hazard.
Pennanular brooches feature sharp pins. Always wear with the pin pointing away from the neck and head to prevent injury.
Leather cords are designed to break under excessive force to prevent strangulation risks. Cotton cord and metal chains are made to be stronger.
Nickel Testing: Our metals are tested for active nickel content, but individuals with metal sensitivities should take precautions.
Our Guarantees
It is very important to us that you are completely happy with the service and product you have received. This is why you have some additional guarantees in addition to your statutory rights.
Lifetime Guarantee against faulty manufacture.
As long as we are working as blacksmiths we will repair any piece we have sold to you through this website. The lifetime guarantee is for the metalwork. Leather or other materials have a shorter guarantee. We do our best to source out the best ingredients, but due to the nature of the materials, we cannot cover these.
Refurbishment Guarantee
Because of the nature of iron, we offer to refurbish any iron jewellery back to its original state. Including a brand new cord.
The cost for this is the cost of shipping, with tracking, the piece back to you and any other fees we may incur in taking the payment for the shipping. You will need to send the piece back to us, so this will mean that it can take up to a couple of months depending on our respective postal services.
Gift Guarantee
It is usually best to order gift items well in time. With international orders this can mean that the period of return expires before you have a chance to gift the piece. This is why, if you let us know the date when you will give the gift, we will extend the time that you can return or exchange to start from that date, rather than the date when you received the piece.
Assay and Hallmarks
All our silver work has been independently assayed and hallmarked at the Goldsmiths Hall in London. This is your guarantee of the purity of our materials.
