Local Scottish Makers

Local Scottish makers are integral to Lifestory's buying ethos.  It is a delight to be able to stock and share so many wonderful local Scottish artists and small makers. There is an impressive amount of energy, skill, passion and thought poured into each makers' work, and you can really tell when you hold the pieces in your hand. 

We stock everything from jewellery, such as Edinburgh's Behind Bracken with their recycled silver and fairmined gold jewellery, to ceramicists based in Scotland like Borja Moronta, Emporium Julium and Studio Brae, to delicious chocolate from Bare Bones of Glasgow.
