Create a 'Selkie' Brooch with Saltwater & Starlight 29/11/2025

COURSE INFORMATION COMING SOON

10am-1.00pm

With Jessica Leese of Saltwater & Starlight

"The selkie is a mythological being found amongst the folklore of Scotland. Selkies are shapeshifters, transforming between seal and human form by shedding and replacing their skin. In their human form, selkie folk are always referred to as being incredibly attractive. They are graceful, kind natured and amorous, resulting in any humans coming across them falling desperately in love.

Often in selkie stories a possessive sailor will steal their seal skin in an attempt to keep the beautiful selkie for themselves. The stories always end the same way though with the selkie reclaiming their skin and once more returning to the sea."

The course is held in our workshop above our shop on Palace Street in the centre of Caernarfon.
