Kit Heath Jewellery: Our Favourite Pieces and How to Choose the Right Collection

Kit Heath Jewellery: Our Favourite Pieces and How to Choose the Right Collection

Kit Heath is one of those brands that rewards you for knowing it well. There are nine distinct collections, nearly 300 pieces in our range, and a design language that runs consistently through all of them — organic, coastal, sculptural, and built in sterling silver to last. If you're new to the brand, or shopping for someone who already loves it, here's our guide to the collections and what makes each one worth knowing.

The Kit Heath story — Devon roots, 40 years of craft

Kit Heath was founded in 1984 by siblings Kit and Katie in North Devon. Kit's early passion for silversmithing — including melting down the family candlesticks to make his first pieces — combined with Katie's creative direction to build what is now one of Britain's most recognised sterling silver jewellery houses.

Every Kit Heath piece is made in 925 sterling silver, hallmarked, and finished to jewellery house standards. Selected styles add 18ct gold plating, rose gold tones, freshwater pearls, or cubic zirconia — always as enhancement, never as substitute for the silver quality underneath.

Coast — the collection most people fall in love with first

The Kit Heath Coast collection is where we'd point most new Kit Heath customers. Inspired by the organic forms and textures of the North Devon shoreline, Coast pieces are crafted in sterling silver with touches of 18ct gold plate, freshwater pearl earrings, cubic zirconia and signature sandblast finishes.

The Coast Pebbles Stud Earrings (£45) are the entry point — understated, wearable every day, and one of our most consistently bought Kit Heath pieces. The Coast Pebble Pearl Stud Drop Earrings (£95) are one of the most elegant pieces in the entire range — a freshwater pearl drop suspended beneath the signature pebble form, and one of our most gifted Kit Heath pieces. For bracelets, the Coast Pebble Golden Station Bracelet (£115) is one of the most wearable in the entire Kit Heath range, and the Coast Tumble Trio Hoop Earrings (£125) make a genuine statement without feeling overdressed.

Desire — heart jewellery made to last

The Kit Heath Desire collection centres on one of jewellery's most enduring symbols — the heart — crafted in hallmarked 925 sterling silver. The Desire Kiss Mini Heart Studs (£50) are the entry point, understated and wearable every day. The Desire Topaz Heart Studs (£65) add warm gemstone detailing that gives the classic heart motif real depth. The Desire Kiss Mini Heart Necklace (£65) has become one of Kit Heath's most gifted pieces — beautifully simple and endlessly layerable.

For something more statement, the Desire Lust Blush Heart Necklace (£115) and the Desire Lust Blush Lariat Necklace (£190) take the heart motif into genuinely luxurious territory — rose gold tones, elegant drop lengths, and the kind of finish that looks far more expensive than the price suggests. Every Desire piece arrives in Kit Heath's signature presentation box — no extra wrapping needed.

Bevel — for quiet, confident dressing

The Kit Heath Bevel collection takes the circle and gives it a quietly modern edge. Softly sculpted, with gently curved surfaces that catch the light in a way flat silver never does, Bevel is the Kit Heath collection for architectural, understated dressing — the pieces people reach for every single day.

The Bevel Cirque CZ Stud Earrings (£65) are one of our bestselling Kit Heath pieces — the cubic zirconia pavé border gives the circular form real presence without being overstated, and they suit everyone. The Bevel Trilogy 18" Necklace (£135) — three sculpted bevel circles on a delicate chain — is the natural companion piece. The Bevel Cirque Link Golden 18" Necklet (£115) is the gold-plate version for those who prefer warmer tones, and the Bevel Cirque Pavé Link Necklace (£120) takes the CZ detailing into a more statement necklace format.

Bevel works from Monday morning through to Saturday evening without looking like it's trying too hard — which is exactly what you want from everyday fine jewellery.

Entwine — the layering collection

If you already have a silver necklace collection and want to add depth to it, Entwine is the answer. The Entwine Twist Drop Earrings (£80) are a current bestseller — the twisted sterling silver form layers brilliantly with simpler chains and pendants without competing with them. The Entwine Twist 18" Necklace (£95) is the necklace equivalent — versatile, elegant, and one of those pieces that earns compliments regularly.

Blossom — nature-inspired and endlessly giftable

Blossom is Kit Heath's most recognisable gifting collection. Celebrating the spirit of Mother Nature through nature-inspired sterling silver jewellery — from delicate florals to the beloved Honey Bee designs — Blossom pieces are the ones people buy for milestones. The Blossom Wood Rose Stud Earrings (£45) are a quiet favourite at Penman — delicate, distinctive, and beautifully packaged for gifting.

How to choose the right Kit Heath collection

Start with the look, then let the story follow:

  • Coast — suits someone drawn to organic, natural forms. The pearl earrings and pebble finishes work for all ages and all occasions
  • Desire — suits anyone buying for a meaningful occasion. Anniversaries, birthdays, Valentine's Day, or any moment where the gift needs to say something
  • Bevel — suits a more architectural, minimal dresser. The kind of person who wants jewellery that's distinctive without being obvious
  • Entwine — suits a confident layerer who wants to add structure to an existing jewellery collection
  • Blossom — suits someone who wants jewellery that starts a conversation and feels genuinely personal

If you're buying as a gift and not sure which direction to go, the Desire heart range or the Coast pearl earrings are the safest starting points — the packaging does the emotional work, and the designs are universally flattering.
