About
For three decades the Steensons have been hand crafting their distinctive jewellery in the picturesque village of Glenarm, the first of the Glens of Antrim, along the famous Causeway Coastal Route.
Steensons are delighted to welcome visitors through their doors. From their showroom a glass partition allows the visitor to observe the goldsmiths at the bench, handcrafting the various collections and ‘one off’ designs that can be found on display.
Goldsmithing is a varied and enriching craft. The goldsmiths use many different tools, techniques and materials steeped in tradition and history, along with cutting edge technologies and processes to transform raw materials to high quality uniquely-made beautiful pieces of jewellery. A world traditionally hidden from view opens before your eyes. Talk with our staff to discover the passion and skills involved.
The Économusée is best experienced Monday to Friday when the goldsmiths are at their benches and the atmosphere of the craft in action can be enjoyed. Saturday visitors can still observe the workshop and sales staff will be on hand to enrich your visit with information.
Visitors will have the opportunity to learn about the art of jewellery making, the rich historical design heritage, the origins of gemstones, the link to the hit TV series Game of Thrones and more.
20 min talks about the Économusée for groups of 4 to 30 can be arranged by phoning in advance.
From atmospheric landscape pieces in the seventies, bold geometrics of the eighties, minimalist nineties, to the softer organic feel of the new millennium, the ethos of the business remains as strong today as it was then, to be innovative in design whilst producing the highest standard of craft.
