 “Tophat Jewellery” was established, by Tony and Helen, 15 years ago mainly making items from haematite

semi-precious stones. 

 

Haematite is a mineral consisting of iron oxide which is mined and polished to give a black lustre finish.   The black beads can then be electroplated to give various colour effects.  The most popular is the rainbow effect.  

 

These beads were then used with various other beads to produce a range of varied and affordable jewellery.

 

Over the years the range has grown and now includes items which are hand enamelled here in Yorkshire.   

 

We also have a range of birthstone crystal jewellery enhanced with Swarovski crystals.
