Hi, I’m Eilidh (she/her) – a proud trans lesbian artisan, a passionate maker, and the face behind QueerGear. I started this journey at QueerGear.co.uk with a simple, powerful mission: to hand-craft high-quality handmade LGBTQ+ jewellery, pins, and accessories that help you feel seen, celebrated, and authentically connected to your community.
To me, a carefully crafted piece of subtle pride jewellery or a vibrant pride flag badge is so much more than just a fashion statement. It is a quiet beacon of visibility, a way to spark an unexpected connection, find your chosen family, and wear your true identity with absolute confidence every single day.
What QueerGear Stands For
- Inclusivity Across the Spectrum: Representation matters deeply to me. Whether you are searching for a bold, colourful statement piece for a Pride festival or a piece of subtle pride jewellery for a professional workspace, I strive to honour and represent the full, beautiful spectrum of our diverse community.
- The True Personal Touch: Because I run QueerGear as a dedicated sole trader, I am personally involved in every single step of your order. From rolling out the polymer clay and hand-braiding the textile cords to answering your customer messages—when you reach out to this shop, you are talking directly to me!
- Uncompromising Quality & Detail: I only design and offer pride accessories that I would be proud to wear myself. I firmly believe that your identity gear should be as durable, comfortable, and well-finished as it is deeply meaningful.
Handcrafted Pride Collections You’ll Find in Store
I am constantly experimenting in my studio and expanding my inventory to ensure that everyone can find a piece that truly resonates with their unique journey. My current artisan collections include:
- Handmade Pride Jewellery: Lightweight polymer clay stud earrings, hand-sculpted pendant necklaces, and intricately braided cotton friendship bracelets.
- Community Pride Flag Badges: Affordable, highly durable pin-back badges perfect for jackets, lanyards, and backpacks.
- Niche Flag Visibility: Comprehensive representation covering everything from traditional Rainbow, Lesbian, Bi, Pan, and Trans designs to Nonbinary, Polysexual, Asexual, Genderqueer, and more.
- Meaningful LGBTQ+ Gifts: Heartfelt, personalized tokens celebrating coming out milestones, birthdays, or tokens of pride allyship.
UK Shipping, Packaging & Community Values
I hand-craft and manage everything from right here in the UK. Because I value your peace of mind, every order is shipped completely discreetly and free of charge via Royal Mail Tracked 48, ensuring your items arrive safely and securely.
Every single package is sent out with genuine gratitude. When you buy from QueerGear, you aren’t supporting a mass-market retail chain – you are directly supporting a queer-owned, trans-owned independent creative business, and that means the absolute world to me.
You can read more about how I work, my principles, and my commitment to the LGBTQ+ community on my Work & Principles page.
Stay Bold. Stay Proud. Stay You.
