His and Hers anniversary Rings

Made from Titanium
worked on the lathe
Made them for my Boyfriend and I for our first anniversary together.
Ultimately the same ring both for him and me, both go on our little left hand finger. I can wear both, or mine fits into his and can be screwed together to make a pendant for him.

 

Family Christmas Presents

The middle ring is for my mother, the pendant for my younger sister and the ring to the left for me. Three women in the family = three pieces of the puzzle.

The Bakery

Exploring the Boundary between what should and should not (and what can and can not) be used to make jewellery. Inspired by the french tradition of Baguette.

 

Upcycle

A Project where Old Abandoned Books were Upcycled to make a Beautiful Neckpiece

Muscle Fibres

Two years ago I made a paper exoskeleton inspired by my Anorexia, as an attempt to remind myself not to be like that. My recovery since found me becoming obssessed with weight training, to such a point that I have damaged my back, and at one point could not weight train or move much at all. So this peice is again designed to be a warning to myself to be careful, and treat my body kindly.

Although it is a personal message to myself, I also regard it as a warning to the viewer not to go to far into the extrem. The peice hinders arm and shoulder movement as if one were to have suffered a sport’s injury.

The materials I used are glued threads, to resemble muscle fibres, so that on first glance people would understand the overall concept. I hoped to make a communicative peice of work, that could serve as a warning or guide to those viewing it.

East meets West

Project Inspired my the opulent leather trade in Istanbul, whilst trying to take typically Western shapes (collar and cuffs) and join the two.

The Concealed Collection

White Perspex pendant

Copper shell, covered in 18ct gold leaf

Embedded with Swarovski crystals

(the shell can rotate around the pendant to hide or expose the crystals)

pencil project

 

A chain made of deconstructed, cut up and glued up pencils. Can be worn anywhere around the body (neck, hips, arm...) and why not around the christmas tree too?

Enamelling

 Left: fine silver wire enamelling

Right: free form enamelling

Metal Shape. Could be a brooch?

Medals Project

I made a Medal illustrating how moustaches, although often grown by men to look more masculine, do not always have the desired effects.
On one side it shows a large moustache, and on the other a hand bag.

Metal Bracelet Project.

Inspired by Scales and Armour
