✿ My colourful statement wooden jewellery is handmade in small batches completely in-house in my South Wales studio. I draw each design digitally in Procreate, and then cut the shapes out of sheets of wood in my laser cutter. I line up the shapes by hand on a template I've made in my flatbed printer, where the design gets printed directly onto the wood in durable water resistant UV inks. Any further gluing or assembly required is done by my own fair hand while I sit at my desk watching true crime documentaries or awful reality television.

✿ I'm inspired by nature, art, food, animals, flowers, bright colours, and bold graphic shapes. I love creating unusual and quirky jewellery that starts a conversation and inspires compliments whenever it's worn. I feel 10x more confident and badass when I wear a good pair of chunky statement earrings.

✿ I love working predominantly in wood. For me, the tactile natural feel of wood can't be beaten, and I love how it absorbs the ink with an almost satin finish. It's also environmentally friendly, plastic free, durable, and lightweight which is great for wearing it all day every day! Wood is a natural material, and so has texture and grain properties that may show through the print at some angles. This makes each piece unique and special and is not considered a fault.

✿ I use simple, eco friendly packaging that is 100% recyclable. Your goodies will arrive in striped paper sweet bags, padded with colourful tissue paper inside a sturdy cardboard mailer that will fit through a standard letterbox so there's no need to be home when it arrives. To reduce paper waste I do not include a physical invoice but do not fear; your order details are always available on your Purchases page and in the email confirmations.
