Bespoke everyday silver and gold jewellery inspired by the stunning North Yorkshire landscape and coastline

Hi, thank you for taking time to look at my shop!

I am an artisan designer-maker, creating handmade bespoke jewellery in mainly fine and sterling silver. I also make a range of 14ct gold filled wired jewellery and enhance my work with the addition of gold and semi precious gemstones. My inspiration comes from the abundant nature found across the stunning moors to rugged coastline near my North Yorkshire studio.

My journey into making jewellery started around 20 years ago when I took a series of silversmithing night classes. I learnt how to make a few basic pieces and I was hooked! Since then, I followed a corporate career in project management, and just recently returned to my passion for making jewellery. In 2023 I learnt new skills in silver metal clay and have achieved several certifications including Art Clay Level 1& 2 diplomas. I was drawn to silver metal clay because it's manufactured from 100% recycled silver from the medical, electronic, automotive and other industries and is a very versatile material which can be easily textured and moulded and after firing results in solid hallmark standard silver.

The process of designing and creating jewellery is very mindful and therapeutic and is the perfect way to unwind and destress from our busy lives. Why not take one of my workshops and discover for yourself the exciting and rewarding experience of making your own bespoke pieces of jewellery! If you're interested in private lessons, a bespoke workshop or if there's a workshop you like but the date/ times don't work for you contact me.
