The Designer

Hi, I'm Clare - a silver smith and beaded jewellery designer from Gloucestershire.

Jewellery has always been a passion. I love the impact a piece has on a person. Whether as a confidence boost to yourself, or a treasured gift from a loved one.

That little jolt of happiness you experience each time you wear or look at it. That joy, was something I wanted to create and I feel very blessed to be able to do so.

I find inspiration in the countryside where I live and explore with Willow. I love to incorporate wildflowers, owls, deer, feathers, and sunrise colours in my work.

And of course the sea is another source of inspiration. I'm a huge fan of the U.K coast and many of my designs are born out of trips to Devon and Wales. I love incorporating beach combing finds into my work and packaging.

Materials

  • Suppliers

    I use UK based suppliers and other artisans wherever possible.

    Supporting other small businesses is important to me.

  • Sterling Silver

    All of the sterling silver used in my designs is 100% recycled.

    I also recycle all my scraps and turn them into new shiny pieces!

  • Gemstones

    The crystals and gemstones used in my designs are AA+ grade quality as a minimum.
