Resurrecting Skateboards into Fashion, Homeware & Gadgets

SESH is a British skateboard jewellery and art brand. We make all our designs from preloved recycled skateboards. Skateboards are made from 7 layers of compressed maple, a very complex yet beautiful wood - which through our careful craftsmanship and attention to detail creates perfect light weight and smooth pieces of jewellery. Don’t be fooled by a skateboards rough, broken exterior - it has simply faced many battles in its past life! We bring its soul alive so the natural beauty can be enjoyed by everyone!

Making jewellery from cherished skateboards is our utter passion (we literally live and breathe it! ) and we are very proud of every single piece we design and create. Skateboards are treasured by their owners, and endure so much in their often short life, but from the time they are created to the moment they are placed in our hands, the journey of strength, determination, belief, success and inspiration are embedded deep within. We value and honour the history and stories enclosed within each skateboard. The rest of its story is then written by the new owner. We hope that when you wear our designs these very qualities and the positive energy will be passed onto you, and the board can be loved once more.

Still in our infancy and completely self-funded we are already becoming well established and respected by both the skateboarding and fashion communities in the UK. It is with thanks to individuals across the globe giving us hope, faith and belief that our long aspired dream can become a reality. The name SESH was created to share our story and offer inspiration to others. It was founded in 2012 by James and Stacey Gomes-Siqueira after they had endured a difficult 12 months previously. SESH continued to grow at such an early age and from very little financially thanks to the support of friends and family - the SESH team.

At SESH we are always stepping ahead by ensuring we create the most innovative and exciting designs which are not only to a high standard but can be appreciated and cherished for generations to come. We want every person to be able to feel special and unique wearing SESH jewellery. We are very proud and inspired by everyone who believes, supports and appreciates the mini pieces art and the passion that goes into creating them.

The team at SESH also support community projects and charities in the UK, and intend this to grow and continue as we do. It is a very important element of SESH and us as people. Currently, a project that is very close to our heart is 'Skate4Isaac', and we will continue to help them in any way possible. Please try to take a moment to visit the website www. skate4isaac.com and offer some love to the team in any way.

The last 12 months have had incredible highs and horrendous lows. SESH was honoured to have been a part of the biggest UK festivals; involved in some inspiring community projects; made life-long friends and a support network globally as well as pushing ourselves as much as we can to create exciting new designs and art. In April 2013 we were heartbroken to lose a special friend and SESH artist Rob in an accident. He will always have a legacy through SESH and we were honoured to have been blessed to have him in our lives. We will keep going to make him proud as well as inspire others to never give up through any adversity.

You can find out more about us on our website. It is currently being updated but we will let you know as soon as its live.

Thank you to our awesome friends and we hope you will become part of our family and world. Also, a big thank you for the fantasic and inspiring messages we have recieved. We will keep working hard and promise not to let you down! : )

Sending Strength, Endurance, Solidarity and Honour to you all,

James and Stacey (and our awesome team)
