Celtic charm
Island treasures
Sheila Fleet
’s stunning jewellery designs are inspired by her
beautiful home in the remote Orkney Islands, off the north-eastern
tip of Scotland, and made at her local workshop. ‘The shapes,
textures and colours of the Orkney landscape are a constant source
of inspiration,’ she says. Something will catch my eye – the way
the light reflects on the water; the sudden appearance of a
rainbow; the shape of a rock or headland.’ Now one of Scotland’s
leading designer-makers of gold, silver and platinum jewellery, the
company has gone from strength to strength, alongside Sheila’s
reputation for distinctiveness and quality.
You can choose from an extensive range of engagement and
wedding rings in silver with enamel, gold set with precious stones
and platinum, and a relatively new white metal called palladium,
which is proving to be very popular. Skilled polishing and finishing
give the jewellery just the right lustre, without removing the
subtle shapes and markings within the design. For a unique
experience, why not visit the Orkney Islands to meet Sheila and
see your rings being made. You will see where she gets her
inspiration in the unique beauty of Orkney and experience the
island’s local produce and hospitality. Alternatively you can visit
the Sheila Fleet jewellery gallery at Edinburgh, or order online.
