Whether you are a professional looking to add to your skills, completely new to jewellery making and would like to try it out, you make jewellery as a hobby, or you are considering making jewellery to sell, I would love to help you.
I work primarily with silver, using traditional jewellery making and related skills,, as well as working with silver clay - a relatively new product, but I don't often use silver on its own - I also love working with bead weaving, Kumihimo (Japanese braiding), and the odd bit of stone carving, and I love creating different effects by combining these or other materials in different ways with silver.
