'Lollies'

Jewellery like lollies ... I like to play with colours and shapes - drawing with metal and colouring it through the application of layers of enamel. This family of jewellery remind me of the watercolour paint pallets that I played with when I was a little girl - splashes of my favourite colours. It was fun.

'The hearts'

Interestingly, many philosophers have come to the conclusion, through thought, that love is the most important thing, the centre cog of our existence as human beings. Within this commonality though, each heart seems different, with its own stories from the past and dreams for the future. These hearts are made with this in mind. Fused and beaten silver is concealed, sometimes only suggestively, with the hard protective coating of enamel. Enamel is a very particular substance. If dropped on hard ground the enamel will shatter, but underneath, the silver core of these hearts will not break.
