Sarah lives in north Buckinghamshire with her husband and 3 children. After a successful career in the commercial world she wanted a new challenge. She had always been interested in jewellery and, in September 2006, she began a silversmithing course.
She designs and makes one-off handcrafted items using traditional skills. She particularly enjoys creating texture on the silver. She takes inspiration from the way the metal changes under the different blows of the hammer, which she uses to her advantage when designing. In some jewellery pieces, hammer marks are retained and highly polished in order to create a contemporary finish.
Her aim is for her jewellery to be both wearable and affordable.
