Jewellery

Helen Chalmers Jewellery

Helen studied Jewellery and Metal Design at Duncan of Jordanstone, graduating with BDes (Hons) in 2011.
Since then she has established her business in Edinburgh and currently works from The Biscuit Factory in Leith.
Helen specialises in the use of hot glass and supplementary materials created in an oxygen/propane mix flame with a technique known as ‘lampworking’. It dates back to Ancient Egypt, where oil lamps were the heat source. It has a rich history in Murano, Venice and has enjoyed a recent resurgence, especially in North America.

Koa jewellery

Koa-Jewellery
Inspired from the UK coast, its beautiful coves and beaches, fishing harbours and surf culture, Koa jewellery is made in Sully, South Wales. Each handmade piece of jewellery is produced using a base metal of high quality UK sourced pewter. The Pewter is 93% Tin (all recycled) and completely lead and nickel-free. Many of the designs incorporate coloured resin detail.

Leigh Shepherd Designs

Working from her studio in Haworth, West Yorkshire Leigh creates a range of mixed media pieces, cards and jewellery. She has a passion for upcycling and a desire to make affordable, quirky pieces of jewellery.

Earrings are made from sixpence coins, pendants from Scrabble tiles and brooches from draughts and domino pieces. Silkscreened papers and resin create jewel-like colours.

Lucy Kemp Jewellery

Lucy Kemp Jewellery was founded in Hayle, Cornwall by Lucy Kemp. Lucy’s jewellery is handmade in her workshop and she draws inspiration from her surroundings in and around Cornwall

Mangojuice jewellery

Mangojuice jewellery is made here at the gallery by myself. I use mainly sterling silver and semiprecious stones to create one off individual designs. I like to experiment with other materials, different processes and textures so the end result is always an eclectic mix of colours and textures with an organic and weathered look. My inspiration is the fascinating colours and textures of the changing seasons.

Sarah Drew Jewellery

Sarah makes contemporary, definitely eclectic jewellery from found objects (driftwood, sea plastic, sea glass and slate pebbles) combined with semi-precious stones and pearls linked together with chunky hammered eco-silver chains, delicate crocheted fine silver and fused silver focal pieces.

She works from her studio in Cornwall and loves spending time outdoors in the fresh air on local beaches and in the woods, collecting curious things.

Using recycled materials, remaking old broken jewellery or basically ‘rubbish’ in this way is a sustainable way of creating unique pieces.

Silverfish Designs

Silversmith and archaeologist Carol lives and works on the side of the beautiful Malvern Hills and has been making jewellery inspired by prehistoric rock art, the interplay of light and texture and influences from her travels since 2000.
