Armour Studs – 1cm x 1cm approx

“From a young age, I have loved to make with my hands. My creative desire lead me to study a Bachelor of Fine Art, majoring in gold & silversmithing. During my studies, I recognised my appreciation for objects. I love that objects can be sentimental, visually pleasing and precious to touch. I love that jewellery allows us to wear these objects. I am inspired by shape and structure when I design. The arrangement of parts, patterns, and the lines that my eyes follow in my surroundings, influences what I put on to paper, following through into my jewellery, and it is so rewarding seeing that come to life.”
