It's been a busy week, sending jewels off here, there and everywhere! The Bowie Gallery has received these lovely earrings and brooch as part of my new collection for them. The Bowie Gallery is a lovely place in Hereford. I used to supply Sara, owner of the gallery, with my work for a few years. After a couple of years of absence, I decided to contact Sara once again and here we are! Sara has also asked me if I would make her some work for the Hay Festival next Summer which is great!

Kaz and I also sent off our big boxes of jewellery to DAZZLE at the Royal Exchange Theatre today! It opens the weekend of 19th and 20th November and is on until 1st January. The perfect place to get your Christmas presents!

If you are in the Hereford or Manchester areas, go check them out!

Well, better get back to some jewellery making! Gone are the days when the Coburg Dazzlers go to the pub after a big send off! We're just too busy! A well deserved glass of vino will be drunk when I get home tonight though :)

About my work

Working with silver and gold, I use my own customized technique of fusion to create textured sheets. I overlap petal like shapes into regular and irregular patterns. By working and forming the metal in various ways, I produce delicate pieces of jewellery resembling flora and fauna. Large neckpieces, brooches and rings are made up of continuous floral and bud clusters, whilst others are constructed of fine sheet layers that glisten and often move when handled or worn.

If you are intersested in any of the pieces shown here or in any post or would like to commission me, you can contact me either by phone or email (details above).
