I am passionate about vintage and found objects because they evoke memories of people and moments in time that have meaning for us. They carry the patina of love with them; you can imagine them being worn often, treasured and gifted between friends and loved ones.

I have been an avid collector of vintage costume jewellery for many years and especially love the detail in the design and manufacture of the quality pieces produced from the 1920s-1980s. I enjoy finding vintage jewellery, researching its history and sharing that with you.

I search for vintage jewellery and unused components as I travel the world. When the items I find are broken, orphaned or their intended use is long forgotten I love giving them new life in my designs.

My lovely customers tell me that they really enjoy the conversations that start when they wear my work.
