BEFORE

I have had this work hidden away for the past month, saving it up for the 'Jewellery in Bloom' exhibition at Platform Gallery in Hatton Garden. The past day or so I have been putting this big necklace together to finish off the collection. I have revamped an old necklace, added some gorgeous citrines, smokey quartz and random squared chain and Voila! I am very pleased with it :) Before and After images are above.
'Jewellery in Bloom' runs from 28th March until the end of May. If you're in or around London go and take a look at my jewels in the flesh! The new gallery looks pretty swanky from the images on the website! I hope to pay a visit myself next time I'm down in London.

Next, it's finishing off a group of work for Dazzle. I have just a few days left to do this, so will be working some long days. Weekend off first though in the Deen and looking forward!

Have a great weekend!

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).
