Woods & Byrne

We welcome you,

Some stories are told in words. Others are felt. At Woods & Byrne, we believe in alchemy: that the right combination of materials can imbue even a simple piece of jewellery with story and ceremony. We believe that crafting with the right combination of materials, precious metals and gemstones can lead you to experience today, that small piece of history, culture or ritual that existed long ago. We believe that each material we work with brings its own magic. We believe in working with the finest quality materials.

Our love of craft, beautiful materials and Julie’s need to always have her glasses close at hand, resulted in us creating the Eye Keep. The Eye Keep is a ‘Must Have’ piece of jewellery for your glasses that offers both function and style.

 

It beautifully addresses the problem of where to put your glasses when not on your face. It also saves you lots of time looking for your glasses. Worn around the neck like a necklace with your glasses fitting securely through the ring and held firmly in place. The Eye Keep is for everyone. ‘Eye Keep’ my glasses close at hand with style. Our handcrafted Collections of Eye Keeps range from everyday wear to dress wear so there is one to suit all occasions and one to suit everyone.

At Woods & Byrne we create accessories that tell a story. So we invite you to visit each page and marvel at the stories that lie behind each one of our products.

Enjoy
