Trinity Jewellery

I use polymer clay as my main medium, but also use lampwork beads that have been hand-crafted by mainly UK based designers.

My designs are unique and different. No two items are ever the same.

I work from home to create these designs but I display and sell my jewellery at the many craft fairs through out the country.

I am also available to host jewellery parties. The host will receive a hand-crafted gift and discount.

Veronica is influenced by ancient Greek pottery and researches Mycenaean and Minoan vases and stirrup jars. Inspiration comes from natural and man-made patterns and the changing colours of the Scottish landscape.
