I started making silver jewellery at a night class at Gateway College 20 years ago. Three children and several night classes later, I felt ready to start my own business. It still feels like a luxury to design and make jewellery to sell.

I now have a studio in the stables at The Manor, Tur Langton. We started to rent it in April 2021 and 3 weeks later, thanks to Andy Ward, it was ready to open.

It’s a pleasure to run workshops at the studio, where there’s lots of room for up to seven. It’s inspiring to see all the ideas generated at the workshops and amazing to see what people achieve.
