A wearable reflection of their passion for books full of stories, facts and how-to's: our 30-piece limited edition jewellery collection is here, welcome to the Library of Us. 

"I've acquired a new bookcase recently, and as I filled its shelves with all my old friends - my favourite books - I felt such a sense of joy as we were reunited” - Harriet Vine MBE

Imagined from a love of reading books, collecting books and crafting accessories inspired by books: we’ve immortalised a passion for the physicality of flicking through pages to discovering obscure reads into eclectic acrylic art jewellery, inspired by our Co-Founders’ very own collections.

“An obsession/passion/favourite for me since teenage hood, the diagrams and charts exploring colour are almost as fascinating as the theories themselves” - Harriet Vine MBE

Science meets art in our Colour Theory Statement Necklace, as an infatuation for bold hues and bright colours to the charts and diagrams of these educational texts come alive in 29 individually layered pieces of glossy, marbled, laser cut acrylic. 

Flower Arranging Statement Necklace, £395

SCI-FI TO FOLKLORE

Category is: out-of-this-world accessories. Wannabe space explorers and conspiracy theorists, blast off together as we explore Co-Founder Rosie's obsession with all things alien. Drawn from the pages of ‘UFO Drawing from the National Archives’ by David Clarke, this metallic statement necklace is inspired by mysterious sightings to records of strange objects collated by the Ministry of Defence’s UFO desk over 60 years. The truth is out there: colour-changing iridescent acrylic that glows from peach and pink to space-age blues is a must-wear for SS25.

Sandown Clown Pendant, £39, Plesiosaurus Necklace, £158

From the Isle of Wight to Tatty Devine: surreal accessories are the perfect partner to sharp silhouettes as seen on Mugler’s SS25 runways. Our Sandown Clown Pendant is a tribute to enigmatic encounters in UFO folklore. Inspired by our Co-Founder, Rosie’s chance discovery of a BUFORA Journal featuring Sam the Sandown Clown, this piece is a wearable portal into the realm of the Isle of Wight’s unexplained mystery. 

“Sam the Sandown Clown was an otherworldly figure supposedly spotted by two children on the Isle of Wight in 1973. He was said to have wide eyes, a painted face, a pointed hat and was always carrying a microphone - sadly I never saw him myself!” - Rosie Wolfenden MBE

Unearth the past: a new addition to your prehistoric jewellery collection is here. Best layered over spring/summer 25’s trending powder pink: swirling marbled acrylics in seafoam greens and fossil blues, bring our articulated skeleton to life. From the pages of dusty dinosaur books to the glass cases of the Natural History Museum, our Plesiosaurus Necklace is a love letter to Mary Anning, a trailblazing fossil hunter who reshaped our understanding of ancient life.
