Sheila Fleet Jewellery celebrates grand opening of new Edinburgh retail premises on Hanover Street

Sheila Fleet is thrilled to announce the opening of her contemporary two-storey jewellery shop at 4 Hanover Street, just off Princes Street. Edinburgh locals may be familiar with Sheila’s jewellery from her boutique Stockbridge shop, and her displays within the iconic Jenners department store. This relocation of SheilaFleet Edinburgh to Hanover Street brings the made-in-Scotland brand back into the city centre, showcasing Sheila’s extensive range of traditional and contemporary collections in the heart of Edinburgh.

Sheila Fleet OBE is one of Scotland’s leading designers of enamel, silver, gold and platinum jewellery. From the sea to the sky, Sheila’s designs are inspired by the beautiful nature, landscapes and history of Scotland, especially Orkney, her island home. All Sheila’s jewellery is designed, made and finished in her Orkney workshop.

Sheila Fleet Jewellery has worked with Helen Lucas Architects and commercial interior company SPLINTR, a talented team of designers, architects and craftspeople who specialise in creating bespoke interiors for the retail and hospitality sectors. “This project has been a pleasurable experience working with such a creative and ambitious team who have brought our vision to life”, said Sheila.

The interior represents Sheila’s love for geology, taking inspiration from pyrite rock formations and the striking basalt rock upon which sits Edinburgh Castle. “My love of rocks and gemstones started when I was at Edinburgh Art College in the 60s”, said Sheila. “I joined the Rose Street Lapidary Club in 1964 where I made my first piece of jewellery, and the rest is history!”. Sheila is celebrating almost sixty years in the jewellery industry, with over thirty of those running her own jewellery company. Sheila Fleet Jewellery now has five unique retail locations in Orkney, Edinburgh, Glasgow and St Andrews.
