Adore My Store St Justin
myCornwall|August/September 2017

Almost everyone in Cornwall will know the St Justin brand.

Adore My Store St Justin

For over 30 years their jewellery has found its way across the Duchy. From humble, traditional beginnings it has now blossomed into one of Cornwall’s premier jewellery makers. 

Founded in 1984 by Jeremy Gilbert, St Justin began in the small village of Pendeen near St Just, an area steeped in tin-mining history. With a staff of three, Gilbert began to produce small pewter items to sell locally in gift and craft stores. As the business started to flourish the name ‘St Justin’ was born and within three years it was moved to its new home in Penzance. 

“When the company first began, many of the items created were heavily influence by ancient Celtic designs,” explains Wayne Hutchings, St Justin’s Marketing Manager, “Over the years this has continued and the company has diversified into creating designs not only influenced by the history and traditions of Cornwall but also from the whole of the UK and countries overseas. We can get inspiration everywhere - from textures of rocks, the colours of the sea, an ancient tradition or an historical event – and even our own pets!”

Whilst October and November might be the start of quieter months for much of Cornwall, it seems that in Bude there is no sign of winding down from the summer hustle and bustle just yet. With art shows in October, plenty of independent shops and pubs open for business, two music festivals taking place in November alone and many more events to fill your diary with, Bude is definitely a place to be enjoyed all year round.

Cornwall - A Hub For Ethical Fashion

Catching on fast to the changes we need to make for our planet, is Cornwall. In the past several years we’ve been banning plastic from our homes and eateries, cleaning our beaches, and there are more refill, waste-free food stations popping up than ever. It’s a trend that’s easy to get behind, but one thing many of us tend to overlook is perhaps one of the biggest contributors to environmental waste of them all: clothing.

Call Of The Forest

Call Of The Forest

It has to be said that Cornwall is probably not best known for its woodlands. In fact, there are many areas, such as Bodmin Moor, that seem almost completely devoid of trees. This scarcity of trees only serves to make the pockets of woodland that we do have even more precious.
