Designer maker of silver jewellery celebrating the joy of nature.
With a life-long passion for the natural world, spending time with nature, living and creating in woodland, guiding forest bathing and nature connection, active conservation work, and as a sustainability advocate I draw inspiration from the beauty, designs, textures, shapes and colours of the natural world, to create jewellery celebrating the joy of nature.
Life-like silver bees perching on honeycomb, oak leaves, acorns, ginkgo and sycamore cast from real leaves and acorn cups, enamel butterflies, flowers and chalk-stream inspired brooches are all examples of my work.
Miniature works of art which can be worn everyday, designed to bring joy!
They are designed and hand made by me using traditional silver-smithing techniques such as casting, repousse and hand-forming. I add colour using enamel, gold, pearls and amber. Burnishing adds flashes of sunlight.
My training has been with many specialist experts, including: Jinks McGrath, Fabrizio Acquafresca, Jessica Turrell, Lindsey Mann and at Goldmiths, City Lit and elsewhere.
