ENGLISH  ARTIST JEWELLERS

We have been making jewellery together for the last 14 years, from our home, in a lovely wooded valley on the Dorset/Devon border.

We make our own web-site, Michael takes the Jewellery photographs out in the garden.

Sue 

I’v always loved making things, beading things together

In 1976/77 I spent time in San Francisco, where I learnt Stained Glass techniques.

I went on to establish a workshop in the South of France. Exhibiting and selling my Stained Glass work & doing commisions in France and Switzerland

In 1983 I moved to Portland, Dorset, where I set up
another Studio, and continued my work with glass.

It was around 1990 that I first started playing with silver wire and crystals. Making simple jewellery. My work has evolved from there.  I am mostly self taught

I love making objects, artifacts that are meaningful,
and that people love, and wear. 

My work is influenced by nature, and natural forms

I started working with Michael in 1995.

We live and work in a quiet valley, on the edge of the woods, close to the sea.

Michael

For some years I was a gardener, and most of my creative energy went into landscaping
and making gardens.

For a period I was a part-time potter, throwing mugs and bowls in single fired stonewear, and working on designs for a candle lantern oil burner.handmade art candle lantern

I met Sue, and started working with silver, it took over, and now after 12 years, I still find jewellery making
fresh and new.

I love the idea of making wearable art, and the longevity of silver and gold

I am especially drawn to crystals, and enjoy encorporating them in my designs.
