Sheila Fleet Jewellery

United Kingdom · Luxury Goods & Jewelry

Sheila Fleet has come a long way since the designer-maker decided to open her first workshop in Orkney in 1993. After starting out in a converted shed, Sheila now employs around 18 skilled craftspeople in a dedicated studio, which looks out across the stunning land and seascapes which inspire so many of her designs. When the company was set up, Sheila had already amassed 26 years experience as a designer and maker of jewellery, working in London with various renowned designers during the fashion heydays of the sixties and seventies. She travelled to Germany, Switzerland and Holland in the course of her work. Throughout this time Sheila won numerous awards. Sheila Fleet is now one of Scotland's leading designer-makers of gold, silver and platinum jewellery. Her approach reflects her origins as a fine artist – she studied drawing, painting and sculpture at Edinburgh College of Art before specialising in jewellery and fashion design. Each piece bears the maker's mark SD (Sheila Dearness – her maiden name) and a hallmark from the Edinburgh Assay Office, demonstrating that it has been independently quality tested for fineness. All Sheila Fleet Jewellery is designed, made, finished and packaged at the workshop in Orkney, Scotland.
