I strive to make objects which are a pleasure to use, both in a tactile sense and visually. My first love will always be silver because it is a joy to work with and incredibly beautiful to look at. It can be manipulated and finished in a huge variety of ways. I also make silver jewellery, taking the properties of the material to a smaller scale and incorporating sympathetic materials such as pearls.Focus:SilversmithingCV:Download documentAboutThe main focus of my work is silversmithing, in particular domestic pieces for the table.
