Quite Contrary
'Quite Contrary ' is a small jewellery business run by designer Pam Bradby, from her home in Brompton-on- Swale.
'I specialise in producing sterling silver pieces of jewellery incorporating semi-precious gemstones, freshwater pearls, Murano style glass beads and Swarovski crystals. A range of collections comprising a limited number of items on a particular theme is produced each season. November sees the launch of 'Black Ice' - a collection inspired by Snowflake Obsidian, a form of volcanic glass and picking up on the strong monochrome trend on the Catwalks for Autumn/Winter 2007. Also available is a collection inspired by 'Autumn Leaves' and a number of necklaces reflecting my ongoing obsession with all things heart shaped.'
As well as the seasonal collections, I love designing individual pieces. So if you need a piece of jewellery for a special occasion or gift, or in a particular colour please do get in touch. Special order cards are available at the Lakeside for this purpose.
