Here at YouK, we have been talking about the different brands that have caught our eye this year. We’ve listed the brands we hope to find under the tree on Christmas Day to give you a little UK-made inspiration for your Christmas shopping!


C. W. Sellors
From their base in Derbyshire, C. W. Sellors offer a wide range of jewellery exclusive hand crafted collections, to unique one-off designs. They specialise in the use of the British gemstomes Whitby Jet and Blue John.

Lucy & Yak
We’ve had our eyes on Lucy & Yak for some time and they are well known for their dungarees, but we love their fleeces.
Lucy & Yak’s fleeces are made using 100% recycled polyester from used plastic bottles. Recycled polyester is great because it prevents thousands of plastic bottles from entering landfill or the sea. Creating polyester yarn from recycled bottles also uses less energy than producing brand new polyester yarn from oil. Best of all, it is super soft and cosy.

Finally, for a bit of festive spice, Hollyrood Distillery’s Spiced Gin is a beautiful blend of traditional juniper supported by fresh red cherries, fresh clementine zest and warming spices including nutmeg, cinnamon, clove and allspice berries. It is robust and satisfying, a Christmassy twist on the classic London Dry style.
