About

I make jewellery in my workshop in Wales, inviting deeper connection to our bodies and our authenticity. Mostly inspired by the female form, expression, and my lived experience of chronic health issues.

I started silversmithing in 2016, self-taught, in my dads garden shed. It began as a coping mechanism, helping me move through and process life  with my hands, and has since  turned into a practice to reconnect with my body, how it’s seen, how it’s judged and how i live within it.

Pieces like Lilith, Evelyn and Aya each tell their own story, drawing on mythology and feminine  archetypes. I’m less interested in jewellery as decoration and more in jewellery as a way to hold and integrate something, the tension, inner conflict or the parts of ourselves we’re taught to hide.
