A few snaps of my wax carving workshop last Saturd

A few snaps of my wax carving workshop last Saturday at my studio in St. Andrews. Everyone did such a great job! The table always starts out so clean and organised but by the end the day it’s full of experiments and tools...all resulting in some AMAZING finish pieces!! Well done everyone! Stay tuned to see the finished jewellery pieces.

These hands made your jewellery and they have had a busy start to the week with loads to get done and a lot of juggling (metaphorically speaking 😉)

Today I sold this ring to a lovely Rose Street customer @therosestmarket @kay_cey_ 🌿🌿🌿
I made this ring only last month using 9 carat rose gold setting two Australian sapphires and a diamond atop the band. This ring was a bit of a turning point for me in this style of stone setting. I spent a long time creating an alternative way of setting the stones and I’ve finally figured it out.
It’s always hard to part with a new piece that you feel close to but I’m so thrilled to see it go to an adoring home. 😊
If you are interested in something similar DM me or keep an eye out for new rings - coming soon! -

This is what 1 kilo of 100% RECYCLED sterling silver looks like. This is the silver I use to make each piece of jewellery. 🌿🌿🌿🌿
I buy it from a German company who source their silver from industrial electronics and existing jewellery, they refine it and re-sell it like this. 🌿🌿🌿 🌿
Mining silver from the ground is a pretty dirty business and is often done in developing nations, where workers (often children) don’t have access for safe working conditions. ——————————————— #reusereducerecycle #ethicaljewelry #australianjewellery #handmadeinmelbourne #slowfashion #slowjewelry #atthebench #shopsmall #shoplocal #sustainablejewellery #reclaimedsilver #sustainablefashion #melbournejeweller #recycledfashion #recycledjewelry #melbourneartist #uniquejewelry #recycledsilver #

Last year I got the opportunity to make a really special custom piece. For these kinds of commissions I always start by chatting with the client in details about what they want, then I doodle an idea of what I think could be possible.
Jo wanted something that would relate to her mum and her sister but also her kids and husband.
This is my first sketch outlining a master block that is relevant to all members of Jo’s family. From here I will make several piece of jewellery for each person in the family. Stay tuned...more details to follow....

It’s been back to work as usual this week but hard not to feel incredibly sad about the fires and their destruction. It’s hard to know what to do at this time when ‘our house is on fire’ @gretathunberg other donate to the cause and sew pouches for much needed injured wildlife @wwf_australia
This image captures what Melbourne looks like covered in smoke. Big thanks to @geoffp63 for this incredible shot.
I hope you’re all staying safe.

Today I’ve been @therosestmarket and this week I’m back in the studio, but it’s hard to know what to do at this time when ‘our house is on fire’ @gretathunberg other than donate to charitable causes and sew pouches for much needed injured wildlife.

I made this piece for a dear friend who has a love for the Australian bush. It seems fitting to now share it with you. Four eucalyptus leaves fold together to create a cocoon like pendant. Make from 100% recycled sterling silver with an oxidised tarnished surface.
