Things, becoming other things. The hand holds the hammer that nudges and forms material, following the material, rather than coercing it. It knows where it wants to go, I just help it along. #silversmith #silverring #recycledsilver #treebranch #naturejewellery #weartheplanet #newmaterialism #weddingring #vigselring

An old hammer made new, oh how it gleams! I also re-fixed the head to the handle, which was loose. #remake #recycle #silversmith #usewhatyouhave

After a 2-year hiatus I've made something in silver again, just for fun. I think I will call it spoolery (spoon jewellery). Great for spooning coffee into your stove-top espresso pot and pacing yourself with the whisky on a night out...or a night in;-)

Impulse sawpiercing, the best kind!

Something from my master exam work at Konstfack, a small box containing smooth space in a striated exterior. Yes it is...dare I say it, a little Deleuzian.

Materials are steel, silver plated brass, eggshell with membrane attached.

Something from a few years ago, where I like the quality of the differences in appearance depending on the angle you look at it. There are some similarities here to my latest work, which I’ll be posting soon!

The material is anodised aluminium.
