With Shelley McVittie’s Gallery as a source of nostalgic inspiration, jewellery designer Kim Murch has recently developed a new "Throughout Time" line of vintage jewellery especially for Shelley.
Kim is among several Canadian artisans who are featured in Shelley McVittie's store. She brings a love of nature and semi-precious stones and a creative flair to crafting her one of a kind jewellery.

On her travels, Kim seeks out new and interesting elements to be used in her pieces. Each is crafted to last, none contain nickel, and findings are gold- or silver-plated.
Many of the designs in the new "Throughout Time" line have what she calls a bit of a “steam punk” look - a definite Victorian feel, but with modern elements thrown in.
