Whitby Jet jewellery has been produced in our historic cottage since the mid 1880’s. Whitby Jet has a long and complex history of usuage in the British Isles. It first appears in the archaeological record in the Neolithic and has been used continuously ever since.

                The pinacle of jet production was during the Victorian era. Whitby Jet being adopted by almost every court in Europe as the epitome of mourning fashion.During this period we see examples of what must be some of the finest lapidary work in history.

                 At the Ebor Jetworks we choose to hand make all our Whitby Jet jewellery in the traditional way. We are proud to be one of only a handfull of  makers who still work Whitby Jet as a cottage industry. Our business has a carbon footprint of less than four miles from the furthest collection points to our retail workshop, Thus making our jewellery some of the most ethically produced in the world. Sarah is a geologist, senior acredited gemmologist and postgraduate jet researcher at Durham University. All of our gem material is personally selected by Sarah and as such you can rest assured that you are receiving the finest quality certified Whitby Jet.
