In 2014 I was fortunate enough to opt for voluntary redundancy from a job that I had truly loved for nearly 20 years. It was hard, and took quite some time to come to terms with what felt like a bereavement, but it also was a great opportunity.

How often do we get a chance to start over in our forties after all?

So, I took time off, spending that time on some of the big jobs round the house and at the allotments, and then in the November I launched a small jewellery business. I have always made jewellery for myself, but mostly it had been simple wire work. I’d also wanted to go to university to study silversmithing, but it was just too costly back in the 1990s; so here, finally was my chance.

Since then I've had a successful shop on Etsy, have increased my skills (and tool collection!), registered my maker's mark with the London Assay Office and from 2023 also with the Edinburgh Assay Office

I decided I should have my own website, where I can showcase my regular and most popular items, plus the occasional one off art piece (but to be honest, uploading photos and creating listings is not my favourite way to spend my day, so if you've seen something at an event, do message me if you can't find it!) 

Find me at local fairs, and contact me if you'd like to pop round for a personal viewing / discussion regarding your shinies

You can contact me in lots of ways, but the most reliable is to use the contact form here on this website.​

Follow me on social media to see what I'm up to currently.

I live in Exeter, UK, and in 2025 engaged a representative to allow me to sell to my European based customers, however from August 2026, there were further regulatory barriers that have prevented me from selling direct to people based in Europe. If you live in the EU and want to order from me, again, do contact me before placing an order and being disappointed when I refund you. 

If you have a need to contact my EU rep, you can do so by post or by email with these details:
