An extract from the 3rd Indie Bath, published for Winter 2022.
Meet Rhiannon Hamilton, one of Bath’s Indie Heroes and founder of Honey Willow, whose shop is located on Pulteney Bridge.
Tell us a bit about Honey Willow...
Named after our daughters Honey and Willow, we make meaningful jewellery that celebrates loved ones and life’s milestones. We have sold online for nearly thirteen years, and our website holds our full range of jewellery, much of which is made to order. We now have a shop on Pulteney Bridge, with a workshop opposite, where the team make our customer’s jewellery.
Why Bath?
We fell in love with Bath fifteen years ago. It’s a beautiful city, surrounded by countryside, with friendly, down-to-earth, creative people who love living here. I grew up in London where a lot of people are just moving through. In Bath, everyone is happy to be here.
Share something new and exciting that you have discovered in Bath…
The Lido has reopened at Cleveland Pools – a huge project which has been lovingly brought back to life by a dedicated team of local volunteers.
What do you do to spoil yourself?
I love going out for lunch or dinner with my husband or with friends. A favourite place for lunch is the Wheelwright Arms in Monkton Combe, and Walcot House is always a treat for either lunch, dinner or cocktails.
