I have been making silver jewellery
since 1975. I trained with Rod Edwards, an
Australian Jeweller whilst in London, working as a Primary School Teacher. I moved to Snowdonia, North Wales with my husband
Peter in 1980, where we have brought up 3 children. I
have continued to make jewellery for my family and friends
since 1980, calling any new necklace after the person for whom it was first made.
In recent years I have
developed my skills further under the tuition of Rauni Higson, a local jeweller and
silversmith. She has increased my skills and
helped me to develop new and interesting techniques.
My jewellery tends to be influenced
by my lifestyle
in rural Wales and my mathematical background. I like to make items of jewellery
which have simple styles and clean lines. I
am always fascinated by the different effects that can be created by changing the
dimensions of a single item.
My
Sterling Silver jewellery can be seen in shops and galleries around North
Wales particularly in Snowdonia where it is for sale in Oriel Mon, Anglesey, Cole and Co in Beaumairs,
Anglesey and gray Thomas in Caernarfon. I have now also got outlets in Rhiannon - The Celtic Design
Centre Jewellery in Tregaron, Cole and Co at the Courtyard in Cardiff. I attend craft fairs throughout Wales.
