My jewellery has been selected for 3 high profile seasonal gallery shows over this Christmas. As a long time admirer of Dazzle, the annual curated contemporary jewellery show at Oxo Tower Gallery on London’s Southbank, I am delighted to have been invited to exhibit for the first time this year. As well as the fantastic Dazzle@oxo I am also showing alongside talented designers at both the Craft Centre and Design Gallery in Leeds and at New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham. Do pop along and check out these shows if you are in the area. Full details can be found on my CV page.

My work is now being showcased at the gorgeous Gill Wing contemporary jewellery shop in Islington, London - who describe my jewellery as ‘sumptuous silhouettes in mixed materials’. This beautiful showroom is home to many of my favourite jewellers so you should go along and check it out. I will have work there over Christmas and into the new year.

Goldsmiths’ Centre in London have written about their Getting Started alumni from this year who will be exhibiting at New Designers. It’s great introduction to the 10 of us that will be showing as part of the curated One Year In showcase next week. I am so looking forward to catching up with all of these guys and seeing their fantastic new work. Hope to see you there.

I am delighted to share that I am showing work in The Scottish Gallery’s Pearl exhibition in June. An exhibition celebrating the use of pearls in contemporary jewellery featuring work from: Marianne Anderson, Ella Fearon-Low, Elizabeth Jane Campbell, Etsuko Sonobe, Ruth Tomlinson and Misun Won. I have made some new pieces for the show including these deep blue Flying Cloud Earrings with gold - I love the slightly classical twist that these colours bring to this design. The exhibition is live online from today.

This week I have been at Cockpit Arts studios having induction sessions for the London Creative Network (LCN) programme. I am really excited to be part of this dynamic offering and have already met some great fellow craftspeople and artists. Find out more about LCN at Cockpit. 

Janet Fitch has featured my work in her April Column on the return of the brooch in Jewellery Focus Magazine.  It's lovely to see my work alongside talented makers such as Melanie Georgacopoulos and Amanda Denison.  I really am passionate about brooches, wearing them and making them so this feels very apt.  Janet also included collector Joanna Sterling who acquired my 3 Queens Brooch for her collection in 2017.  See the full 3 page article here.
