Handmade Jewellery made with sterling silver wire or chain, incorporating semi precious gem stones, glass pearls and beads.

My interest in jewellery making first came about through learning Celtic & Chinese knots. I found it amazing the way that just tying 2, 3 or 4 lengths of cord together you could create different forms & patterns.Once I started incorporating beads into weaves the possibilities seemed endless.

This interest then lead me to discover chain maille, instead of using cord I was now using metal rings. At this point I decided I needed to learn how to solder so I enrolled in an silversmith evening class. It was at these classes that I was introduced to the wonderful world of wire & bead jewellery.

Wire wrapping is my favourite technique and I am in awe of the pieces some of our really talented wire wrapping designers produce. They are the inspiration that makes me push on with my own pieces.

In 2017 I took a course in crystals and crystal healing. Having passed the exams to become a fully qualified crystal healer I realised that, whilst many people liked to be surrounded by crystals, there were very few options available when it came to using crystals on a day to day basis that would help with healing. So I set about designing crystal jewellery based on the patterns and the techniques I had learnt about. The patterns used are squares, circles or ovals, triangles and spirals. The techniques that I incorporate are based on the energetic vibration rate of each crystal.

I have a collection that works specifically on the chakras and energy field. In which I have advised which chakra a crystal resonates with, together with the properties of that crystal. Giving the buyer an idea of the healing that could occur if wearing that piece of jewellery.

In my crystal jewellery collection, I have tried to introduce my customers to the wonderful world of crystals.There are so many crystals available, in a huge range of colours and bead shapes and sizes. Although this collection is not based on therapy techniques, I have mentioned the healing properties of the crystals as a matter of interest.

I work from my home in Surrey, having turned a spare room into a workshop.

All my jewellery is handmade by me. Some items are one off, others are made in limited numbers using beads of different colours.

Thank you for looking at my shop, I hope you had as much enjoyment seeing my designs as I had in making them.
