I have always had an interest in collecting vintage and antique jewellery, and the Art Deco period inspires some of my jewellery designs.
My jewellery pieces are made using gem-stones, pearls, and artist-torched lampwork glass beads. I design many classic styles, Art Deco being an influence, but I also use organic earthy beads for more unusual modern pieces.
I work mainly in silver, enamel and a speckly effect enamel! Work is very contemporary but I love my work to be worn on a daily basis so it is very practical. Its best described as colourful.
