Claudia Bradby - Northern Star pearl and silver range.

Welcome to our Northern Star pearl and silver range. This is Claudia's most powerful pearl range yet and Claudia explained her thoughts behind these beautiful new pearl and silver jewellery designs.

‘This new range of designs is an articulation of Clauia's design philosophy – strong, simple and unusual pearls in adaptable and highly wearable designs. She admits to being inspired by the compelling historical drama The Vikings, and in particular the warrior women. They were at heart farmers, and home makers, but also adventurers who used their skills to expand their horizons. The women fought in battle and were known as shield maidens. She found their courage and warmth very appealing, in particular a character called Lagertha. Inspired by the show she visited the British museum to see the Viking jewellery and was moved by the connection back in time, as well as the fact that the jewellery had endured through the centuries. Pearls are the oldest known gemstone to have adorned people, and she was interested in jewellery through the ages and its role in society. The Vikings wore bracelets to pledge loyalty to their kings, and the women wore beautiful shawl brooches into battle. She was very attracted to their shapes as you can see in the new Lagertha studs with simple pearl drops.
