Meet the maker Anthonia Onwordi

My name is Anthonia; my jewellery-making journey began in my teens with bead weaving and stringing, which I now occasionally incorporate in my pieces. The numerous opportunities of metal clay captivated me late in 2010 when I stumbled upon it accidentally, and I use it primarily to create my pieces. Late in 2011, I decided to turn jewellery making into more than a hobby and enrolled with the Mid Cornwall School of Jewellery with a view to obtaining a Diploma in Metal Clay.

I work primarily with fine and sterling silver, copper and bronze metal clays, and also incorporating both semi-precious and lab-created stones. I am inspired by all that is going on around me as they can be turned into something beautiful. I take custom orders and if, for example, you see a piece that you'd like with another colour of semi-precious stone, etc., please feel free to contact me and we'd work together to achieve your aim.

I am constantly looking for ways to improve my skills by learning other jewellery making skills, and these I also use in creating my pieces.

Thank you for stopping by.
