About

I have worked extensively in jewellery design and production since graduating from Sheffield way back in the days of the 1980’s

Working previously in two partnerships creating both hand crafted and small batch production collections, selling nationally and internationally with stockists previously including Harrods and the Saatchi Gallery, with coverage in national press publications including The Guardian, and The Times – both business and style sections.

Returning to more traditional methods of production my latest work proudly draws years of training and experience, each one off piece is handcrafted in my studio on the south coast of England.

I am an avid believer and supporter in the resurgence of quality design and production here in the UK and keen to add to the numbers of designers with integrity and purpose with a healthy nod to recycling.

My latest work  embodies some of my core passions and interests, I am a magpie, an admirer of both old and new design and never happier when these sit in happy unison. I meticulously source trinkets from the past, buttons, jewellery components, a single earring or cufflink, they are all treasure to me. I then begin to recreate their purpose and contemporise them, considering colour scale and composition.

 I often wonder where the pieces originated, who wore them and what adventures they have been on but the real joy is recreating them into something that someone will love again and that new histories begin to add to the pieces. 

I never tire of searching for new pieces to rework, the thrill of the junk shop chase, auctions, car boot sales and antique shop trawling are very much a happy pursuit…  and then the challenge back at the workbench to create the right balance between old and new.
