About Past Designs Jewellery

Past Designs Jewellery

Archaeologist and jewellery maker

Hullo!

I'm am an archaeologist, avid crafter, spoonie, wife and mum of two. I live in the hills of Devon in the South West of England, and I'm inspired by the contrasting landscapes, histories, and natural wonders around me. I also love folkore, and have a passion to share lost myths, ancient crafts, and the everyday rituals of past day to day lives.

My jewellery is inspired by my love of the past and my archaeological training; while looking modern and wearable. Each piece is individually made and has an explanation of its inspiration.

My logo represents the meeting of my worlds; a moongazing hare was the first thing I made out of wire, and the myths surrounding hares are associated with regrowth and new starts - it seemed appropriate some how!

Please contact me if you have any questions (about my work, archaeology, or anything!) or want to chat about a commission piece.
