I feel most at home in wild places. The open moor, the dell of a woodland with the sunlight filtering down catching the wings of a butterfly, the scrubby sea cliffs of Devon where I live, the playful burbling of a stream meandering through a meadow. These are the places I want to be, where my soul soars free and my sense of me feels filled with awe and delight. Although I live in a small town my heart yearns to wander the wild places, celebrates them, delights in the small myriad wonders that make up this beautiful multitude. I feel stifled in urban places, where crowds and pavement deny this beauty. I make my jewellery to take nature with me, to remind me of its abandon, exuberance and beauty. Where I am free. Nature’s loss saddens me, I worked in nature conservation for over 20 years trying to stem its loss, trying to ignite that wild delight in others. I grow a garden filled with flowers and plants that feed and nurture nature and my eyes. And I wear my garden, and tokens of natural elements to hold with me that sense of awe, to connect me to the wild places and to anchor my soul to the places that bring me peace and joy.

I’ve made jewellery for many years, finally settling on a medium which allows me to capture the intricacies and detail of what I love, so its not a mere simulation but an actual memento to hold when I need to ground myself in the place my soul rejoices in.

I want to share that with you and help you find that wild space to take with you, that memento of a place that brings you peace and allows you to reconnect with what you love. I want to celebrate your uniqueness by helping you find that unique natural memory that you can carry with you in your journeys through life – be that through my collections and one off’s or through a special commission that brings meaning to you. Shop my collection or get in touch to discuss something unique.
