Description: If you prefer minimalist jewellery with a story, this narrow oblong design fits the bill. Because Blue John mining is limited to a few kilograms a year, small-batch pieces like this are increasingly sought after by collectors. Beyond its physical rarity, the mineral is linked with peace of mind and mental balance.

Our full Blue John collection is here, and includes cufflinks, pendants and earrings.

Collection Information

Our Derbyshire Blue John jewellery features this semi-precious mineral which was formed several million years ago.

Blue John is a form of fluorite with bands of a purple-blue or yellowish colour. The name Blue John may come from a corrupted of the French “Bleu jaune” - “blue yellow”.

It is only found in the UK in one location – the Blue John Cavern and Treak Cliff Cavern in Castleton, Derbyshire.

Blue John is becoming rarer and mining is now extremely limited each year, with only a small amount being made into jewellery.
