Cover Story of Kit Heath

Kit Heath‘s love of jewellery began long ago, ignited by Kit Heath‘s deep passion for silver pieces during his school days. Kit melted down the family’s candlesticks to create sterling silver jewellery that he sold to friends and family. The early experiment fueled his passion, and Kit soon found himself travelling from place to place in a VW Camper Van, selling his unique designs to gift and jewellery shops. The story took a captivating turn when Kit’s sister, Katie, joined him on this creative passion. In 1984, the duo officially founded Kit Heath, forming a creative partnership that combined Kit’s exceptional craftsmanship with Katie’s approach to design. Their Designs draw inspiration from the stunning coastal shores and the serene landscapes of North Devon. The timeless British style quietly influenced and paves the way to creating effortless Silver Jewellery for everyone. Over the years, Kit Heath has evolved into a multi-award-winning Sterling Silver Jewellery Brand, celebrated among Jewellery lovers.
