| I started designing and making jewellery about 25 years ago, when I established my London studio. I have since showed my work in many exhibitions in the UK, Europe, the USA and Japan. My jewellery is made in precious metals, mainly silver and gold. I often use translucent precious gemstones in my designs. Although the majority of my pieces are one-offs, I occasionally produce limited ranges of work, sometimes in mixed media. I enjoy working to commission and I like designing with a specific theme in mind. |
