inspirations

My Jewellery design and creation is inspired by found objects, including sea glass, leaves and different textured or patterned rocks. My designs are often simple, free flowing organic forms. I like to focus on the intricate details, textures or surface finishes.

Sea Glass

I am inspired by the way a piece of broken glass, discarded by society, can be reshaped and transformed into a beautiful gem by the natural function of tumbling in the ocean. I am drawn to the smooth, rounded edges and frosted finish of the Sea Glass. The finished design of the each piece is built around the beauty already created by the ocean. These pieces are not only inspired by the found objects but include the inspirational object directly into the piece.

Leaf Inspired Series  

This leaf once fulfilling its function in nature, now spent and discarded, fell to the ground in front of me while sitting outside in my garden. The organic folds and curves of this dried leaf echoed the beauty found in nature and became the inspiration for a series of Leaf Inspired earrings.

Textures & Surface Finishes

Other found objects influence and inspire my jewellery design, I am always drawn to the finer details found in nature. My Jewellery designs often incorporate an element of natural detail such as shape, texture, pattern or form. I enjoy manipulating the finished surfaces of precious metals to echo textures I see in nature.
