About Lime Tree Design

The Lime Tree Design journey began with our founder, Kate, and her love of vintage jewellery and passion for making the everyday beautiful. Along the way Julia, Ella, Tracey and Celia joined, making up our small workshop team. If you follow us on social media then you will know that our extended family of needlewomen who are scattered around our Nottinghamshire village are a crucial part of the business, as well as our workshop dog Wellie! Over the years we have designed an original range of jewellery which has been inspired by our travels around the world, nature and of course the vintage pieces we have discovered. We have also curated a successful range of home and personal accessories which continues to grow year on year and now features lavender sachets, tea towels, hankies, bandanas, kimonos and our newest addition - tunics. We are passionate about supporting other small businesses, such as those featured on our site and also participate in charity events. We are currently aiming to make what we do as eco friendly, sustainable and as ethical as possible, whether that’s with our product sourcing, packaging or energy consumption. We take pride in working with small workshops in the world renowned Birmingham Jewellery Quarter where our lockets are made by hand and our charms are cast and plated. Our chains are made in Italy by a family run business who have been in the industry for generations. Read their story
