Brighton-based design partnership, Ridley and Dowse, have launched a website for online viewing and purchase of its jewellery collection .
Vivienne Ridley and Susannah Dowse have previously collaborated with Boxfresh, Topman, Harrods, Ted Baker and Wayne Hemmingway and with the new website, they are hoping their creations will reach a wider audience.
The jewellery collection, called 'Knick Knacks, Trinkets and What Nots', creates modern heirlooms by using bold graphic interpretations of nature, with a nod to British heraldry. All the pieces will be made from stainless steel, silver, semi precious stones and fresh water pearls .
The designers are keen to underline their commitment to ethical production techniques. Susannah Dowse said: "All the work is produced in the UK to reduce air miles and avoid sweatshop production, as well as supporting British industry by using local businesses. We also have a social responsibility policy and will be donating part of our profits to human rights and anti sweat shop organisations ."
