The Origins

The story of Alchemy began with two Manchester lads, Geoff Kayson and Trevor Phillipson, self taught, amateur artists and model makers. Broke, jobless and into rock and punk music in Leicester in 1977, GK started making punk anti-jewellery and selling it to local shops, at gigs and by mail order. Demand grew, the two teemed-up and soon, they were making pewter skull jewellery and being asked to make tour merchandise for bands.

Alchemy’s rock and goth jewellery, their Poker rock merchandise and their reputation for design, all took off and Alchemy quickly grew into a small company of young, creative wastrels specialising in the alternative lifestyle. 35 years later and still under their original ownership, the English based art, design, manufacturing and distribution company has grown to become an international brand.



Alchemy are best known for their fine English pewter creations, but also incorporate many alternative materials and finishes in their truly unique designs of exceptional quality… Extraordinary Design.

As well as their now famous and highly respected branded jewellery and conceptual artwork, Alchemy is now revered for their commercial ‘custom’ design and production service, including a unique partnership with ‘Swarovski’, for items as varied as top prestige awards to simple, merchandise key rings.

Known also for their amazingly original artwork and designs, Alchemy now have an artwork library that is so diverse that it has become a sought after commodity by licensees everywhere and Alchemy work closely with all partners to perfect highly marketable products around the world.
