Charlie High
Silver
The environment is her inspiration: natural objects such as flowers, shells and leaves, as well as buildings, landscapes, and events. The feelings they arouse fuel design ideas.
Sometimes focussing on texture, at other times on shape and form, but always with the underlying desire to create something both beautiful and wearable, her pieces are unique and imaginative as well as being

Sarah Radford
Sarah’s influences are wide and varied including nature, history and fashion. This range, worked in silver and glazed porcelain is directly inspired by the fashion and craft movement of the 1970’s. All pieces are made by hand and are entirely individual.

Lucy Sylvester
Gold silver and semi precious stones
Lucy is motivated by using insects; if a ladybird landed on a woman’s knee she would probably accept it. However if a cockroach walked up her leg it would not be welcome. The thought of creating jewellery that will be worn close to the skin, from the insects she would loathe to be near, fascinating. The twisted pleasure of a woman adorned by the insects she would swot in everyday life.

Adam Harvey
Contemporary Ceramics
Adam works from the Harvey Wells studio and gallery, which is situated in a beautiful old chapel standing above the village of Helford in S.W.Cornwall. He has a fresh approach to designing and producing contemporary art, which is both decorative and functional.

Stephanie Ray
Silver and bamboo
Stephanie’s design influences focus around simplicity of function, fusing clean simple lines and geometric shapes with themes of repetition and movement. She uses oxidised detail or gold elements to highlight specific features. Stephanie designs and makes her jewellery from her London-based studio and also works for an international development charity.
