I design and make original jewellery and other decorative items using my own handmade glass or polymer clay beads.

I have been making jewellery for many years and designs have gradually evolved to incorporate my own, original handmade lamp work glass or polymer clay beads, combining these with semi precious gemstones to create unique pieces that aim to be interesting, eye catching and comfortable to wear.
I live near the Essex coast and am inspired by the local landscape, plants, beach and skies. The way these change throughout the seasons is a constantly refreshing colour pallette to guide my designs.
I am available to teach workshops on jewellery making, polymer clay techniques and silk painting.
