I am a jewellery designer, working from my studio in Mumbles, South Wales. Studied at Sir John Cass School of Art in the City of London, 1978-1982. I work with pewter for jewellery collections, bridal pieces, through to repousse mirrors for interiors.
My work is often cast by A.E. Williams in Birmingham. My latest use of pewter is pleating foils and wrapping special cut raw stones in foil which I have embossed with old lace. I have always loved the malleability and warmth of pewter and the many different ways to use the metal; always challenging my previous ideas.

Cast pewter from junk shop finds and eighteenth century buttons, cut up and layered. Mixed with Swarovski crystal, pearls and beads. Diverse collection which can be mixed with cream pearls for bridal wear. Pewter pieces are already in production for Gill Clement at A.E. Williams in Birmingham.
