Fire-drake Jewellery

Living in the remote hills that border Wales and Herefordshire there is much inspiration, peace and quiet. Our name Firedrake was inspired by the mythological fire dragon who (unlike us) hordes his precious metal and gems... All of our Jewellery and gifts are made to order and hallmarked where appropriate. Though most of our creations are listed on our website each will be made individually for you. We welcome bespoke commissions, so if you cannot find what you're looking for we can make it just for you.

A mainly self taught Jewellery designer and maker, Chris of Firedrake Jewellery began experimenting with metal designs in 2013, beginning with bead and wire and graduating to fully fabricated items. Each piece is made with love and care.

UK Hallmarks



In order to describe and sell precious metal jewellery as such, we need by UK law to have the item hallmarked by our chosen Assay House (we use Birmingham, UK as this is the closest to us and by far the most famous). This applies to any item of jewellery that contains:



Above 7.78gm weight of Sterling, Britannia, Argentium or Fine Silver



Above 1gm weight of Gold - where the item is solid gold and not gold filled (rolled gold)*



We may occasionally decide to have lower weight items hallmarked - this is at our discretion, however you are at liberty to request us to have a lower weight item hallmarked. In this case the addition of a hallmark will incur a charge which will be advised to you before you pay for the item.



*Gold filled jewellery cannot be hallmarked as it contains a core of non-precious metal. That said, if there is also a high enough percentage of precious metal in the piece and it is identifiable from the gold filled it is possible that we may be able to gain a hallmark. 



Ordering and Timescales



We will endeavour to post out items to you in a timely fashion.



If the item(s) do not have a “made to order” note on the product listing this means we have the item in stock and can ship to you within 4 working days.



If the item(s) do have a “made to order” sticker, then the delivery schedule will increase to approximately 3 working weeks from receipt of order to posting item(s).



We will always post your items as soon as possible, depending upon the complexity of the item and whether we need to source materials and/or gain a UK Hallmark.



If for any reason you item will be delayed further we will contact you and advise you of a revised date.



Some items by their very nature will take more time to make, if this is the case there will be a note made in the product description and we can discuss it with you when you order.



If an item is to be customised, we will advise you within 2 working days (from the date you send us the customisation form or email), the turnaround time, cost and any other additional charges. 



If you have ordered a commission item or customization you do not need to go through our basket/merchant pages on this site.



We shall email you a quotation specifying the item, description and postage costs.  Once you have accepted the quotation, we will email you an invoice which will be split into two payments: we ask for a 50% deposit prior to work commencing, this is only refundable at our discretion. 



The balance would be due for payment once the item is ready for you and prior to delivery.  We will usually email you with a picture of the item at this point so you can be sure it is exactly what you expect.  Once the balance is paid we will ship the item out to you at the appropriate postal rate.



You are welcome to fully pay for the item upon receipt of your invoice if you prefer.



Commissioned items can be paid by BACS or PayPal (the details would be on your invoice).



We are also able to take payment by card over the telephone should you wish to use this service.  If so, our service provider Worldpay, insists that the address/postcode/bank account or credit card owners name are identical to the ones you give us verbally.



A printed receipt will be included with the item(s).



Postage, Packaging and Customs



Our standard rate for postage and packaging are listed in the cart selection once you've chosen the items you would like to buy.  We use standard UK Royal Mail for UK and collection Courier services for the rest of the world, the costs have been summarised into groups in order to make shipping easier for you to select and for us to manage.



Each item will be gift boxed separately - unless you ask otherwise



We will post items anywhere in the world - so long as we are able to organise a courier to that location - and we will complete customs forms truthfully in summary as "hand made fashion jewellery"



All items will be packaged securely



If you have purchased multiple items and they are packaged together and are to be delivered to the same address we will combine the delivery as listed



If you are unsure - please ask before you buy, we will find out the most expedient and safe delivery method for you to the best of our abilities.
