About us

Small shop, one favourite stone.

Backyard Trading began with a simple idea: sell the kind of jewelry we actually like to wear. For us that means lapis lazuli, the deep blue stone with fine gold-coloured flecks, set in solid sterling silver.

Our collection is small on purpose. Some pieces use smooth polished stones, others keep the rough natural shape of the rock. A few pair lapis with bright white topaz or warm red jasper for contrast.

We keep the buying simple too: free shipping on every order, Cash on Delivery if you prefer to pay when the parcel arrives, and 30 days to send back anything that is not right.

How we work

What you can count on

  • 01

    Natural stones

    We sell natural lapis lazuli, white topaz and red jasper. Because they are natural, colour and markings vary from piece to piece, and we say so up front.

  • 02

    Real silver

    Every setting and band is sterling silver. We do not sell plated base metal.

  • 03

    Plain pricing

    The price you see is what you pay. Shipping is free and there are no surprise fees at checkout.

  • 04

    Easy to reach

    Questions about sizing, an order or a return go to a real person, and we answer by email.
