My jewellery is created at my home studio in The New Forest, Hampshire, where I am inspired by my lovely garden and "assisted" by our two cats!

My background over the past 15 years is in silversmithing, incorporating other precious metals and semi-precious stones.  I love to make contemporary and unusual earrings in particular, and to experiment with new techniques and materials.

I am currently somewhat obsessed with making earrings using techniques in wire crochet, using either sterling silver or enamelled copper wire.  Every pair is completely handcrafted by me, individual and unique.  The wire creates contemporary, lightweight, fun earrings in a wonderful range of colours.  It also allows for more sculptural and dramatic three-dimensional shapes, and can be combined with silver accents and semi-precious stones.

I continue my experiments .....

I am a member of The Association of Contemporary Jewellers, www.acj.org.uk and www.acjwessex.co.uk., the Guild of Jewellery Designers, www.jewellerydesignersuk.co.uk and most Artful Collective  www.artfulcollective.co.uk. 

If you see a design which you would like, for example, in another colour then do get in touch.  I am always happy to discuss earrings!!
