The Norse left a fascinating legacy through out Orkney

In the chambered cairn - Maeshowe, the left light-hearted runic graffiti carved all over the walls.

It’s the largest collection of runic inscriptions to survive outside Scandinavia – and a powerful reminder that Orkney was under Norwegian rule until 1469.

✨Our runes read 'Health & Happiness' and this pendant is part of a range comprising of rings, earrings and Pewter brooches and scarf rings

🍓Our Fraise range is inspired by the humble strawberry plant, a delicate flower appears, typically white, which, after being pollinated becomes the sweet, red fruit we recognise.
