Purple Route

I make creative, elegant, handmade jewellery in a mix of silver, gold and precious stones. Much of my work is influenced by plants and organic forms to create contemporary collections. I also enjoy working with clients to design, develop and form pieces of bespoke jewellery

About My Practice

I am a jeweller and silversmith with over 30 years experience in designing and making fine jewellery and unusual items in silver and gold. I particularly enjoy working with precious stones and creating my own settings. Much of my inspiration comes from the coastline near to my cottage.

Tools & Materials

This will be my first year in my new purpose built studio where I work with both new and traditional tools and techniques. Some of my collections involve hard gold plating which is done in house. I am sometimes asked if I can melt customers gold or silver to make new jewellery and often this is possible.
