I specialise in handmaking small lovely objects from unusual combinations of metals, usually jewellery or small clocks. I work in sterling silver with etched copper and brass, and heat-treated titanium to create colour. I control the metal through experience to get just the right effect. Each time pieces will come out a little different, looking individual and unique. I think of each piece like an illustration that you can wear or to decorate your home.
I will be doing less wholesaling through galleries in future, for personal and health reasons. I don't want to produce the volume of work I did, and would like more time to experiment. I have some lovely galleries who have supported me for decades and I will continue to support them.
