✨ Something Festive Is Happening at West Country Goldsmiths… ✨

It’s been a few weeks since our last newsletter and, in the spirit of honesty… we can’t tell you where we’ve been.


Legally we probably could, morally we probably should, but dramatically? Absolutely not. Not until the grand reveal.


Our Plymouth jewellery workshop has been unusually noisy lately — and not the normal “someone’s polishing a gold bangle” noisy. More the “why is Lee shouting like the Grinch again?” noisy.


You know how every year, everyone eagerly awaits the big Christmas adverts — John Lewis, M&S, all the classics?

Well… something is happening in that space. Not saying it’s us. Not saying it isn’t. (But it’s us.)

🔍 Behind the Scenes: A Christmas Project We Can't Talk About (But Will Anyway)


We can reveal almost nothing… but here are some extremely unhelpful clues:

  • One member of staff has said the line “I KNOW HIM!” more times than is clinically recommended.

  • Another may or may not have needed guidance on how many knees belong on the floor.

  • We can neither confirm nor deny that someone has practised saying “Cool story, bro” to a fictional reindeer, who may or may not have been played by our office dog Fergie.

  • A certain 1990s New York hotel may have been mentioned in the workshop. Repeatedly.

  • Someone whispered “hate, hate, hate, double hate…”, but we are 78% sure they meant tangled necklace chains.

  • Lee keeps walking past people whispering, “I’m Lee. I do jewellery,” like he’s reminding himself that’s what he’s here for.

Are these clues helpful? Absolutely not. Are they accurate? Debatable. Do they form any coherent picture? Not even a little.

But they do hint at one thing: We’ve created something very… Christmassy. And possibly unhinged.




✨ Meanwhile… Proper Christmas Jewellery Is Still Happening


While our top-secret festive chaos unfolds, the important part of Christmas continues:


Packed with locally made and hand-selected pieces, including:

  • ✨ Gold jewellery made in our Plymouth workshop

  • ✨ Ruby rings, diamond jewellery and keepsake pieces

  • ✨ Earrings, necklaces and pendants for every budget

  • ✨ Handmade jewellery crafted with actual sanity

  • ✨ And for the bold: engagement rings for the perfect Christmas proposal

(We can confirm that none of these gifts involve fictional elves, mobsters, or large green cave-dwellers. The videos? Can’t promise the same.)




🎄 When Do You Get to See These Mystery Videos?


Very soon. Like “brace yourself for festive chaos in HD” soon.


We’ll be releasing them one by one — each blending iconic Christmas cinema with the… unique… personalities of the West Country Goldsmiths team.


If you’ve ever wanted to see classic holiday movie energy combined with handmade gold jewellery and mild workplace confusion, this is your year.


✨ A quick note before the Big Reveal…


These videos aren’t really trying to sell you anything (see note below 🎅), they’re simply a gloriously cheesy attempt at spreading some festive fun.

If they make you smile, giggle, or even groan at the sheer dad-joke-iness of them, we’d be so grateful if you’d give them a like and a share.

The share is the most important part. It helps more people see the chaos and join in the fun with us.


Note: 🎅 We might drop a sneaky website mention or two, but only so people who stumble across the videos know who we are — not because we expect anyone to buy anything.

Thank you for bearing with us while we’ve been crafting something festive (and occasionally unhinged) behind the scenes. We promise the wait will be worth it — or at least deeply entertaining.


Warmest festive wishes, The West Country Goldsmiths Team Plymouth's Independent Jewellers — Making Christmas jewellery… and possibly Christmas history.
