About Lannust Smithing

Lannust Smithing

Hand made one-off items in silver,gold and copper

My first attempts at jewellery were with the scrap copper wire from the rewiring of our cottage when I was 13. I then progressed to enamelling,initially with a hot plate kiln but moved onto a "proper" muffle kiln fairly quickly!
I attended Plymouth College of Art and Design,as it was then,on a Craft Design course studying many disciplines and specialising in Jewellery/Silversmithing. This led to an apprenticeship/job with a small jewellery company near Inverness, making one off pieces in gold and silver. Subsequently started doing repair and restoration work, mainly jewellery and larger metal items and moved to Edinburgh where I worked with the jewellery and antique trade.
I eventually made my way back to West Cornwall, working for a pewter and silver celtic casting company.
I have my workshop at home where I make the items you see here, it's good to be making more free flowing pieces to reflect the landscape around me, and I welcome inquiries and commissions.
