C W Sellors are donating 10 per cent of each sale to the Peak District National Park Foundation to raise money for the site’s upkeep.

Rebecca Sellors said: “We love working on commemorative designs and, whilst of course we started with the connection to the event being celebrated, we also wanted to ensure any pieces created are elegant, wearable and are of the fine jewellery manufacturing standards our customers have come to expect.

“I really feel we have been able to achieve this with the Millstone 70 collection which, alongside marking the National Park’s 70th anniversary, is also a celebration of one its greatest assets with each piece having been handcrafted with the finest Blue John gemstone.”
