My family roots go back hundreds of years in the parish of Symondsbury, and so, it feels very special to now have my own shop here too.
I like to hand-forge the metal using traditional techniques and by using wax to build up or carve my designs ready to directly cast into my chosen precious metal, using sterling silver, 9ct and 18ct gold.
Most of my nature inspired items are carefully moulded from the original natural object, whether it's a frond from a fern or an ammonite from Charmouth beach.
My favourite part is foraging for the natural items.
Collections explore my love for the jurassic coast and the dorset countryside, Colmers Hill (the famous local landmark), gemstones and middle eastern shapes and patterns inspired from my travels.
My aim is to make an item that reminds you of a special place or a happy memory, that you can take with you wherever you go.
You can find my beautiful little shop nestled in the stunning setting of Symondsbury Estate.
