**Due to Covid restrictions I will be limiting my PO visits to 2 a week, posting on Monday and Thursday. If you need something quickly, please message me before purchasing**
Please note that Covid-19 is causing disruption and delays to the postal system and deliveries may take much longer than anticipated. This is outside my control and I thank you for your patience with orders. Unfortunately due to the current disruptions I have temporarily suspended any deliveries overseas.
All my jewellery has been made and finished by hand, therefore no two items are identical, nor are they perfect. It is these small imperfections that give the jewellery its character and each piece has a little bit of me in it x

5 out of 5 starsI bought 2 pairs to wear together- look good - simple but stylish I think!
Very pleased with these earrings - exactly what I wanted to wear everyday.
Ordinary hooks or post and butterfly get caught on masks and catch, I'd given up and was concerned that holes would close...
These are beautifully made, very secure closure, and light but sturdy.
Kym put on her website that she was posting twice a week and they arrived quickly taking that into account, really lovely woman to buy from and her other pieces look gorgeous. -

About kymbi
I bash metal...I wrap gemstones...I play with fabric.
I love making things. I love bashing metals into shapes for jewellery, I enjoy the intricacies of wire-wrapping fine gemstones, I find making bags and clothes in different textiles satisfying. It’s a long step away from my old day job in the office!
I started making jewellery as a recouperative process after a bad health episode. I found that this was a wonderful and creative distraction that acted as an active meditation to calm my mind. From this, my new life as a designer-maker began.
I enjoy exploring the mix of metals and textures using traditional metal-work and incorporating these with my love of gemstones. I love the beauty and individuality of natural gemstones, their shapes, energies and healing abilities.
My jewellery designs vary according to my mood and energy levels, giving rise to distinctly different ranges of design and technique. When my mood is low, I make simpler designs where I can texture metal using a hammer to relieve frustration. When I have great concentration, I make intricate wire-wrapped pieces using precious metals and semi-precious stones. On really creative or contemplative days I will make rustic designs with set stones that often interpreting a story, an experience or a photo. Some days I completely ignore jewellery and settle down to work with textiles for a change. As my mood fires my creativity, no two days are the same. I work from my home studio in Sussex, surrounded by music and watched over by a cat or two and the odd seagull…..bliss.
