Altered Eras
Altered Eras is a jewellery design business foundered by Paula McKay. Paula has always dreamed of having her own business and after following her passion and desire to launch her own label, Altered Eras was born. Paula has created a jewellery brand that is inspired by her dreams, apparent in some of the whimsical and quirky pieces on offer. Paula says: “Altered Eras is a brand that has developed from a love of Victoriana & vintage treasures. I see it as an eclectic mix of Steampunk, literary and vintage styled pieces and collections that was launched primarily to satisfy a creative need in me. I pride myself in my individuality and try to feed this into all my collections & pieces by using quality materials & vintage treasures that I spend many an hour sourcing. I ensure all my items follow the EU nickel directive by using primarily quality US manufactured materials in brass and extensively researching all my sources.” An Edinburgh born & bred Scottish lass, Paula now lives in the Lovely Lake District in rural England with her husband and teenage son. With a background in pharmacy, engineering and various other endeavours that never quite fitted, Paula feels that she truly has now found her ‘raison d'etre’ in Altered Eras and will continue to develop her collections through limited edition and one-of-a-kind pieces.
