Moving On

I have moved out from my studio in Gipsy Hill. If you have something to post then please contact me by email and I can give you my current postal address.

I'm going to be taking a break from making Jewellery, giving me time to explore some new and exciting ideas! However leading up to my move I was busy making lots of lovely jewellery so please still get in touch if you would like some.

I became a member of the Gipsy Hill Studios when I moved to London 5 years ago. It has been a massive part of my life and I'm sad to say good by.

Here are a few pictures of the studio melt down....

Memories of Italy - Bottlestop Commission

I have been commissioned to design a bottlestop based on the receivers favourite destination, Italy. The client visited my studio where we got ideas down on paper. The design is based around the encapsulation of the receivers Italy memorabilia. The objects to be encapsulated include magazine cuttings, a map and some stamps. The next stage is mold making in preparation for casting.

Wedding Present - Love Heart Bottlestop Commission

Annette contacted me asking if I could make her a bottlestop encapsulating some images of love heart sweets. Two of Annette's friends are getting married and the bottlestop is a wedding gift. Annette visited me at the studio to discuss her idea further. We decided that it would be a nice idea to include the actual sweets within the design. Annette left the rest to me.

Illustrated Cufflinks

This project has developed from my recycled paper jewellery range. Where cufflinks have been used to encapsulate and display interesting paper items. Such as the use of tattered vintage maps and the reuse of unwanted comic book.

Skull Pendant Commission

I have been asked to make this skull into a pendant/ interesting object. After discussing the pendant idea with the client we decided to encapsulate the skull without using any colour. To make the skull look extra white I will be bleaching it's surface.

The shape of the encapsulation will be a rounded triangular shape. When the pendant is being worn the triangle shape will be longer than it is wide with a flat edge at the top moving down into a point.

The curves in the surface of the clear encapsulation will magnify the objects details and because the encapsulation is going to be entirely clear the wearer will be able to see every detail of the skull.

Another reason for making the encapsulation clear is so the pendant will be well suited to different outfits and because the skull is quite large it will make the pendant look and feel smaller.
