Welcome to my website... please feel free to browse around and contact me if you have any queries. Commissions are welcome!The style of my Jewellery is strongly connected to the environment I live in. I grew up on the stunning south coast and soon developed a passion for my local beaches and their ever-changing elements. My designs are purposely made from contrasting materials collected directly from the beach, which are then sensitively captured with a brushed finish sterling silver. My experimental approach has incorporated of materials but i am particularly drawn to natural materials, materials which can be given a new life such as shells, slate, pebbles, feathers and sea glass- all of which have been individually selected from the local shore. An alternative strand which reflects a period of study undertaken exploring 'jewellery' & 'ceramics' includes an unusual combination of silver & mini slip-cast porcelain cylinders. Since discovering these two very different disciplines I have created a collection of jewellery which embodies both materials in a sensitive but contrasting style. I love to see the messages expressed by contrasting materials. My inspirations are very specific and draw on my desire of the coast and obsession with beach-combing and collecting natural objects. I am particularly inspired by the ever changing seasons which bring an array of beautiful colours and textures to life! |
