Frequently Asked Questions
Welcome to Katherine Neale Jewellery. Here you’ll find a little more about how I create each piece by hand in my Worcestershire workshop, from the first design ideas through to shaping, soldering, stone setting and those all-important finishing touches.
I’ve also answered some common questions about bespoke commissions, materials, delivery and ordering. I hope you find everything you need, but you’re always welcome to get in touch.
-
You can shop the current Katherine Neale Jewellery collection online through The Collection. Pieces include handmade sterling silver and 9ct gold jewellery, sea glass designs, rings, pendants, earrings, bangles and bracelets.
Some pieces are ready to wear, while others are individually handmade to order in my Worcestershire workshop.
-
Every bespoke commission is individually priced depending on the design, materials, stones and complexity involved.
As a general guide, simpler sterling silver pendants may start from around £125, with stone-set, sea glass and more detailed statement designs increasing from there.
I’ll always discuss the likely cost with you before any work begins.
-
Katherine Neale Jewellery is an independent handmade jewellery studio in Worcestershire.
I design and make each piece individually using traditional silversmithing techniques including sawing, forming, soldering, texturing, stone setting and hand finishing.
Nothing is mass-produced or cast, so each piece has its own subtle character.
-
Yes. I love creating bespoke jewellery around something that already holds meaning.
Your own sea glass, gemstones, sentimental stones or other suitable keepsakes can often be incorporated into a new design. We begin with a conversation about what you have, the story behind it and the kind of piece you would like to create.
-
Yes. Katherine Neale Jewellery currently delivers within the UK.
Ready-to-Wear pieces are normally dispatched within 4–5 working days, while Made-to-Order pieces usually take around 14–21 working days before dispatch.
For current return conditions, including information relating to bespoke and personalised jewellery, please see the Delivery & Returns page.
-
A handmade piece with natural texture, sea glass, a favourite gemstone or an organic silver form can make a particularly personal gift.
Because each piece is made individually by hand, I can also adapt a design or create something bespoke around a colour, stone, memory or story that is meaningful to the recipient.
-
Katherine Neale Jewellery creates sterling silver rings individually by hand in Worcestershire using traditional silversmithing techniques.
Each ring is formed, soldered, textured, set and finished by hand rather than being mass-produced, giving each piece its own individual character.
-
We begin by discussing the type of jewellery you would like, the materials, any stones or keepsakes you would like to include and your preferred budget.
I work in sterling silver and 9ct gold and use recycled precious metals wherever possible. The design is then developed specifically around you rather than chosen from a standard template.
-
Katherine Neale Jewellery specialises in creating bespoke pieces around meaningful materials, including customers’ own sea glass and sentimental stones.
Each commission is designed individually and handmade in my Worcestershire studio, allowing the shape, colour and story of the original material to guide the finished piece.
-
Katherine Neale Jewellery creates individually handmade bracelets, bangles, necklaces and pendants from a Worcestershire studio.
You can browse the current collection online or enquire about a bespoke commission if you would like something created specifically for you.

Every bespoke piece is individually designed and handmade, so the time required will depend on the design and complexity.
Made-to-order jewellery generally takes around 14–21 working days before dispatch, while more involved bespoke commissions may take longer.
If you have a particular date in mind, please get in touch before ordering and I’ll be happy to discuss what’s possible.

Absolutely. Many of my designs can be adapted to make them more personal to you.
Depending on the piece, we can explore different gemstones, sea glass colours, sizes, textures or finishing details.
