Back on the bench and I have had a very inspired few months, with lots of new ideas, and taking time to explore old ideas I have lots of new pieces on the bench, on my website and heading out to galleries and exhibitions.
There are some brand new pieces on show at Embark: A Radiant Pavilion Exhibition at Pieces of Eight in Melbourne, running until the end of the month, so a few more days left. Inspired by the spring colours in my garden I have created a small collection of clusters; A pendant, ring stack and pair of studs using mauve and pink sapphire, with earthy tones from 18ct yellow gold and champagne diamonds complimenting the pastel colours of the sapphires. I have also been working on a brand new collection for Pieces of Eight to compliment the exhibition, lots of clusters and stacks with green and pink sapphire, purple spinel and champagne diamonds.
I am delighted to announce that I will be taking part in Art Ring at Tomfoolery in London this year, the exhibition will be running from the 9th of November until February 2025. I have some beautiful parti sapphires in mind for this one, more details in my next newsletter.
As well as Pieces of Eight, lots of my stockists are getting Christmas top ups at the moment, I am not sure how it is that time of year again!
New pieces are heading out to Diana Porter in Bristol, Victoria Sewart in Plymouth, Anne Morgan in Wales, New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham, SH Jewellery in Edinburgh and Polkadot in Exeter.In some sad news for any of you based in Canberra, the fabulous Beaver Galleries will be closing their doors for the last time on the 1st of December 2024. I would like to thank the amazing team for their many years of support and providing me with the opportunity to show my work in Canberra for the last 13 years.
