New Work Coming Soon

Here is Aa sneak preview of some new work which is hot off the press which I will be telling you about over the coming weeks.

For a friend

A very good Friend of mine has taken the Huge step of marring her man.

He had given her a pair of silver and topaz earrings during their courtship which she had decided to wear on the big day. She decided she needed something to relate with them and very kindly asked me to make her a pendant using the same materials to complete a set.

Thank you Ann, for asking me to make a piece of jewellery for such a landmark day in your life, it was an honour and I hope it is a pleasant reminder of the joy you shared with all you friends and family that remarkable day.

From Sacred Sustenance

One of my most recent pieces, is this brooch which has its origins in the pomegranate fruit.

Whilst doing a project on survival I decided that both physical and spiritual sustenance were needed for survival. I chose the pomegranate for its links with Buddha. The legend has it that whilst fasting and meditating during his quest for enlightenment Buddha would eat only one seed from the pomegranate tree under which he sat.

This brooch is a charm of sorts. A physical reminder for the wearer that one's survival is dependant a balanced diet of physical food and spiritual and mental good health.
