Here to bring joy, creativity and mindful bliss to you and your world.
James + Luke, Founders

“We want to keep growing a global community, present and connected in the quest of creating cool things, to learn new skills and to achieve those moments of happiness, fulfilment and meaning.

The world is a happier place when we’re doing the things we LOVE, alongside those we love the most.”

James & Luke, Founders

‘Busy Hands, Happy Minds.’

CAST aims to prove a point — we are all more creative than we think we are. Founded in 2017, we have now helped thousands of you tap into that rich fountain of creativity that most of us didn’t think existed.

We aim to bring joy, creativity and calm to a fast-paced world full of stress and distraction. All whilst giving you real, amazingly high quality, perfectly imperfect jewellery creations to love, wear and cherish forever.

James & Luke Cottingham 🇬🇧

Brothers & Co-Founders

In a life before CAST, James played pro football, and Luke ran his own recording studio. Not what you were expecting right? There was also eponymous clothing line, jewellery collection, drinks brand and even a popcorn venture. Many mistakes made, many lessons learned. They’ve had quite the journey (Netflix documentary pending), but super grateful to have been able to make mistakes, and live to ‘learn’ another day.

We co-founded the business back in 2017. CAST back then, was a very different beast.
First of all, it was an idea, and barely a side hustle. We organised one group event per month, which we delivered alongside a local venue; events were ticketed, and we treated guests to an evening of ‘off the menu’ food, drinks and of course, bespoke jewellery making. Rogue!

Fast forward (almost) 5 whirl-wind years, and we’re now a team of 10, spanning two cities (soon to be three), and a growing, global customer base. We’ve cast over 30,000 customer creations (each as unique as the last), and shipped a CAST kit to every continent on the planet. Crazy!
