This blog is for prototypes, show info, and other jewellery things outside of my regular site. Enjoy! 

My jewellery wire is a solid copper wire with a thick sterling silver plating, which has been clear coated to prevent tarnish. This means it is completely hypo-allergenic.

The components - beads, rocks, coal, gemstones, glass, shells - come from all over. Unless I order them online, each component is hand-picked by me - sometimes literally, right off the beach - for its beauty. A slave to beauty in small things, I really enjoy combining colours and shapes and making something new and beautiful to wear.
