My
fascination with beads began 20
years ago.
My
love of travel took me to many
parts of the world and I
discovered new treasures at every
destination. Each piece of
jewellery told a tale of my
travels and of discoveries I’d
made in far away places.
I began exhibiting and
selling jewellery 10 years ago. I
joined Farfelu five years ago.
I
create jewellery using materials
from all around the world; silver
and gold crafted in south-east
Asia
, crystal from
Austria
, glass from the
Czech Republic
, semi-precious stones and pearls.
I believe that jewellery
should be worn and not stored in a
box. I use the most durable
materials possible so that you can
wear your favourite necklace
everyday. I also insist that any
piece you purchase (for yourself
or as a gift) should fit perfectly.
Tailoring a piece to fit the
wearer is my pleasure and part of
the joy I get from creating it.
My studio is in my home. I
have participated in La Tournée
des 20, a studio tour which takes
place in September and October,
for the last 9 years.
