Love For Coloured Stones – Morganite
Morganite is part of the ‘beryl’ family of stones. Other beryls include Emerald and Aquamarine. Morganite is also known as ‘rose beryl’ and ‘pink emerald’, personally I rather like the name pink emerald! The name beryl itself is derived from the Latin beryllus. Morganite was first discovered on an island off Madagascar in 1910. The…
The Rose Collection
This is the pink page from my latest look book, it is always difficult picking just 5 or 6 key pieces to represent a particular colour.
Love for Coloured Stones – Thank you
We have had a wonderful response to our question, which coloured stone and why is it your favourite? Answers have ranged from choosing a stone because it is your birth stone, your Grandmothers favourite, the stone that reminds you of something beautiful in nature, to it suits your colouring. I can relate to all those…
Love for Coloured Stones – Ruby Zoisite
Ruby Zoisite is a wonderful stone, in it’s natural state it contains a lovely combination of green, pink, red and some black. In its rough state it has a great texture that makes it perfect for our Tallulah Collection.

Love for Coloured Stones – Prehnite
This stone was originally discovered by dutch colonists in South Africa in the late 18th century and it is one colonist in particular to whom the name is attributed, Colonel von Prehn a military commander and a budding mineralogist. In fact, prehnite is the first stone to have been named after a man.
Love for Coloured Stones – Iolite
This blue-violet stone, aptly named given its derivation from the Greek for violet (ios), has an interesting story.
Love for Coloured Stones – Natural Pink Drusy
A very eye-catching stone, with such vivid colouring that even I found it hard to believe that it should occur naturally when I first caught sight of it while exploring the famous jewellery markets of Jaipur. But occur naturally it does with fantastic results.
Love For Coloured Stones Aquamarine Jewellery
Love for coloured stones Aquamarine jewellery , although this stone may not be as valuable as its Beryl cousin – the Emerald – it is no less beautiful and intense. The name comes from the Latin aqua marina meaning water of the sea and this seems very apt since colours of individual gems can vary…
Love for Coloured Stones Labradorite Jewellery
Love for coloured stones Labradorite jewellery. This stone, native to its namesake, the Canadian peninsular Labrador, is a gem of seemingly limitless possibility and beauty even if it doesn’t have a lovely Greek name to go with it!
Love for Coloured Stones – Amethyst
This week’s coloured stone is the regal Amethyst. I guess you could say this stone was where SuShilla Jewellery began, decades ago. For those who don’t know, I saw my first rough cut gem on the roadside during a very long car journey in Zambia back in the 80’s. I was travelling with my family…
Love for Coloured Stones Chrysoprase jewellery
Love for coloured stones Chrysoprase jewellery. Chrysoprase is a wonderful stone, a rich green that varies from light to medium. This stone has proved extremely popular this summer, with some of my stockists selling out within weeks and asking for more!
Love for Coloured Stones Moonstone Jewellery
Love for coloured stones Moonstone jewellery. As anyone who is familiar with my jewellery will know, my passion for semi precious stones knows no bounds.
Colour In Ibiza
On a rather grey day, I thought I would share some lovely pictures of ‘colour’ in Ibiza this Spring.
Jewel Colours in Nature
I was very lucky to spend a few days in Ibiza this Spring. Everywhere you look, roadsides, fields, hills seem to be covered in the most beautiful flowers and colourful fruit trees. The range of colours was eclectic, blues, purples, reds and pinks.
