Firefrost Designs Ltd create stunning and unique Murano Glass & Sterling Silver jewellery.  With beads handcrafted by a small team of artisan glass makers based on the Island of Murano and hand finished with Sterling Silver by our own, Jules Kenny in her workshop in the Lake District.

Our products are not mass produced, we create handcrafted artisan glass jewellery.  We are looking to expand our network of retailers that value the artisan skills that go into each piece.

Are you able to connect existing bespoke retailers to artisan crafts?  We want to work with agents that are willing to work with us to develop a network of retailers that appreciate originality and quality. We are open to working a small number of agents across the UK on a introductory fee basis to start with.  We can envisage this moving towards a commission selling basis over time, once we have developed our stockist network more broadly.

 

 

Products

Our existing stockists all have access to our full ‘Trade Collection’ of Pendants and Earrings with a RRP ranging from £19.95 upto £34.95.  Each of our stockists are placing multiple orders throughout the course of each year and each year we see their individual spend increasing.  This is an opportunity to develop accounts that will grow on a consistent basis, and add incremental value.

Benefits

  • Sales and marketing support will include a full Trade Price List complete with wholesale and retail pricing. We will also provide with a wide selection of our best selling items and we will go through with you the process used to create each piece. We find being able to engage retailers with the process behind each piece is invaluable. If the retailer truly appreciates the artisan skill that has gone into each piece they sell it better.

We wold like to extend this type of outlet across the wider UK, rather than being more focused on the North of England & Scotland.

We would also like to welcome Ladies Fashion & Accessories outlets into our network.  Our collections spans a wide spectrum of colours and is the perfect accessory for whatever outfit is being worn.  We know from our Christmas Markets and from our online business customers are drawn to a particular colour by preference.  We know our customers tend to favour wearing a particular colour and we can give them lots of choices for accessorising their favourite outfits.

A typical order will range between £200 – £500 plus VAT and a stockist will order anywhere between 3 and 8 times a year.  We would offer a 5% introduction on every first order generated by a new retailer stockist.

The ideal candidates will have an established reputation with the types of outlets that we have described above and will be happy to introduce Firefrost Designs Ltd Murano Glass jewellery and help us build our wholesale / retail business.
