My pieces are influenced by my travels and everyday life. I have taken inspiration from such places as Yves Saint Laurent Majorelle Gardens in Marrakesh, The Valley of the Queens in Luxor and the Victoria and Albert museum in London. These places have fuelled my imagination and influenced my jewellery which incorporates different ideas and allows me to create timeless pieces that will be returned to again and again.
I have perfected my skills while studying jewellery and silversmithing at Sir John Cass University in London, and as a trained goldsmith my attention to detail is reflected in all my work. Each piece is handmade in my workshop in London, and for a stunning look I use mainly sterling silver. I use a variety of techniques, combining this precious metal with traditional processes such as wax carving, Keum- Boo (fine gold fusing) and anticlastic rising.
