Hello and welcome to my Etsy shop. I am a lampwork artist and jewellery designer. I create glass beads, focals, sets, sculptural beads and jewellery and use lots of silver!
My jewellery designs are mainly statement pieces but there are lots of everyday pieces too! I am a member of the Guild of Jewellery Designers and also of SRAJD and also of GBUK, plus British Lampwork.
All pieces are unique - for my lampwork creations, I hand shape all beads and you will never find machine made items amongst my designs. Everything I make is a product of my own imagination. I make limited edition collections with a theme or style and can make custom designs.
The materials I use are glass (Effetre, Riechenbach, CiM, Double Helix, Kuglar, TAG104 & Vetrofond plus Northstar) sterling silver (925), fine silver (999), silver clay (fine silver), bronze & copper clay, swarovski crystals, copper, brass and a limited amount of silver coated white copper core wire. Nickel is not used in the construction of my pieces. All earring wires and studs are sterling silver and most are hand-crafted.
I can be found at events all over the UK and I close my shop when I do this, so if something disappears, it means it has been sold.
Last year (2012) I was asked to exhibit my beads at the Glastonbury Goddess Conference's art exhibition, 'In Her Image', and I have been invited back this year, in August, so you will find many Goddess beads listed.
I have been asked many times if could design and make particular beads so Please feel free to contact me with any questions and if you require a bespoke piece of jewellery or beads. I also make memorial beads. Please message me if you require this service.
I can offer special signed for next day delivery with insurance. and all items are delivered to you in either a presentation box, or a presentation bag. If you would like this option, please mail me and I can arrange this for you.
Please be aware that last posting date for the U.S.A is up to 13th December 2013. For other countries, please message me.
I have a studio, based in Quex Park Craft Village in Birchington Kent where I melt glass, show my work and offer one to one lampwork tuition. If you would like to purchase a lampwork tuition voucher, please contact me for details and a custom listing.
