About Us - Cathy and Andy Ash-Vie

We met sailing - well, of course, sailing is our passion and has shaped our lives.  If it wasn't for that ultimate wet, windy and exciting sport I wouldn't have fell in love with my perfect partner Andy, who is my business mentor, yacht designer and helm.  Through sailing we also met Peter Harken, who has been an inspiration to us both and resulted in us setting up Harken UK.

Sailing, Harken and business have now combined in the crucible of creativity (if I may wax lyrical for one moment!) and has created my new passion for nautical, sailing and sea themed jewellery.

Design;

The miniature Harken blocks in silver and gold are my most popular and unique designs. Taken directly from the Harken engineering drawings, these little blocks are detailed right down to the Harken logo.

Over the years I add new designs to my ever expanding range - shells, abstract wave designs, and knot designs including the most popular Reef knot (also known as a square knot and a love knot).

Every piece is hand crafted by me at my small jewellery bench, so I can customize any piece to suit you. 

Location;

We're very fortunate to be situated in the heart of the sailing world, on the south coast of England in Lymington, with Cowes and the Solent at our door.

I'd love to get your feedback - tips on the next product or collections, nice comments on my pieces and, of course, constructive criticism!
