Welcome! You have found the cyberspace home of an English designer-maker of contemporary jeweller. 'What on Earth is that?'  I hear you cry. What it means in practice is that I am one those makers who, despite not being famous (though I'm trying), is making all her jewellery by hand to her own original designs. My jewellery is mainly based on line, simple shapes in precious metals made as earrings, brooches, bangles, pendants and neckpieces.  I make everything by hand, giving each piece an individuality and character of it's own. Individually made forged bangles in hallmarked sterling silver. Designed to fit closely on the wrist. However my most recent work includes 18ct. yellow gold fused to sheet silver which is textured and finished either with a white fine silver coat or oxidized to a dark finish. Although I work mainly in sterling silver I always carry a range of pieces in 9ct. gold and am happy to make any of my designs in sterling silver, 9 or18ct. gold to order. Owing to my  method of working I do not produce a catalogue, neither on paper nor in this never never land. However I will endeavour to present you with a few items I have in stock at the time on my new Gallery page or e mail me to get me to send you photos of other pieces I have .

"SO HOW ON EARTH CAN I SEE THIS JEWELLERY 'IN THE FLESH'?"

The best way is to find me at a Craft Show - see the list of events (which is updated regularly in case of alteration) over the South and Midlands of England which I will be attending this year.
