The founder of the company, Michael Hersey, set up his business in 1971 after starting as an apprentice many years earlier in a Soho workshop. Ten years later his son Stewart joined him in the business after completing his training as a silversmith at the Sir John Cass School Of Art. Today they are joined by silversmiths, engravers and silver spinners all experts in the art of silver making, jewellery craftsmanship and detailed engraving.
As well as a large selection of silverware from silver pens and paperweights, to candlesticks and photo frames, their silver jewellery selection is hard to beat. I adore a gorgeous Russian style bangle on their website as well as the silver open cuffs that can be engraved. That's the beauty of many of the quality silver items, is the ability to have it engraved by Hersey & Sons in their London workshop.
For this blog post, Hersey & Sons sent me a gifted item to review. Dazzled with the choice from their website, I choose a pair of hammered silver drop earrings and they arrived quickly to my home. UK delivery is free which is great to know! They are also members of the National Association Of Goldsmiths and abide by their code of conduct, based on honesty, integrity and professionalism.
The earrings were packaged well, in tissue paper to protect them, in a box lined with soft velour. The design of the box is classic, with silver writing on a black box. A card was enclosed with information on how to care for your silver, as well as a silver cloth for polishing and caring for your jewellery.
The earrings inside were simply gorgeous!
The earrings are made of a hammered sterling silver that catches the light as you move. With a drop of approximately 28 mm they are perfect if you have short or long hair and will show up well if you have the latter. They are comfortable to wear and fitted with silver wires.
The silver care guide was really useful and it was a nice touch that it was included. Silver over time can oxidise in the air, giving a dark, sometimes black appearance, so it's important to store your items in a cool dry environment and polish them with a silver cloth to keep its looks. It's wonderful then, that a silver polish cloth is included with items from Hersey & Son.
The silver hammered oval drop earrings from Hersey & Son are priced at £40 which I feel is very reasonable for sterling silver earrings of this quality. They would make a great birthday or Mother's Day gift as well as a fabulous treat as a self-purchase for you.
Today on the blog I am giving you a chance to win any item up to £50 from the Hersey & Son website. They have some great silver lockets, silver stud earrings, children's christening bangles and men's silver cufflinks for example.
