Christmas Gift Guide 2024 | Scottish Artisans to Celebrate this Festive Season

Welcome to my Christmas Gift Guide, featuring thoughtful treasures from small businesses I love, with a focus on Scottish artisans and makers, alongside a few of my own jewellery pieces. Celebrate the season by supporting independent creators and finding meaningful gifts for your loved ones.

Cath’s tableware, inspired by a visit to Japan, draws me in with its spontaneous glaze application and beautifully balanced sense of colour.

I was initially drawn to the design of this luxurious cashmere cowl, but discovering it was inspired by a manhole cover in Glasgow’s West End made me love it even more—such a beautifully unique touch!

This 12-year-old Speyside single malt, finished in ruby port casks, boasts a distinctive red hue and hails from Dalswinteon, a stone’s throw from our Thornhill atelier.

Made from Scottish oak by Silvan Studio, this piece is available at Bard, Edinburgh’s new home for beautifully made Scottish objects.

We have a treasure trove of Catkin jewellery ready-to-ship, perfect for adding a touch of sparkle this Christmas.
