(Agreed with Wendy Penrose that I can have more text as I'm a single artist venue). Welcome to my open workshop where you can get up close to the vibrancy, energy and inspirational feel of the silversmithing process and see my work displayed. I am a Danish/British jewellery artisan and geologist working to create beautiful, handcrafted jewellery pieces with a story to tell. I am deeply inspired by nature’s fascinating shapes, forms, textures and colours together with ancient jewellery designs and symbology. The handcrafted jewellery pieces feature colourful gemstones, ancient cultural artifacts and precious metals. Through these beautiful materials, artistic design and craftmanship, I aim to create connections to the natural world and ancient art. I use a variety of techniques including sand casting, Keum boo, lost wax technique, texturizing and stone cutting.
