August’s birth flower - The Poppy

The poppy symbolises remembrance, peace, hope and resilience. A flower that may look delicate but has an incredible strength.

Today I’ve been playing around with one of my absolute favourite flowers…the Phalaenopsis Orchid.

It’s still very much a work in progress, but I’m loving where it’s heading.

One of my favourite parts of working with silver is taking something from nature that I adore and slowly working out how to translate that beauty into metal with a little trial, a little error and plenty of tweaking along the way!

I can’t wait to see where this one takes me…

Follow along to see how this little experiment develops.

Nature’s beauty, crafted in silver.

This bespoke Yorkshire Rose cuff bangle and matching earrings were commissioned to celebrate a truly special milestone birthday.

Inspired by the timeless beauty of Yorkshire’s white rose, each flower has been carefully hand-fabricated from recycled sterling silver in my Dorset studio.

Taking an idea, a story or a meaningful symbol and transforming it into something that can be worn and cherished for years to come is a privilege.

If you have a special occasion or a story you’d love to capture in silver, I’d love to help bring it to life.

June’s birth flower -The Rose 🌹

When words don’t feel quite enough, a rose can say it beautifully.

Each sterling silver rose is handcrafted in my studio, inspired by nature and made to be treasured for a lifetime. A thoughtful keepsake for anyone who loves jewellery with meaning, sentiment and a story behind it.

Save this for your next gift idea, share it with someone who loves roses, or send me an enquiry if you’d like one made for someone special. 🌹

A symbol of purity, new beginnings, and loyal love, the humble daisy has long been associated with joy and optimism. As my chosen birth flower for May, it represents the fresh energy of spring and the promise of brighter days ahead.

This daisy pendant has been carefully hand fabricated from recycled silver in my Dorset studio, capturing the simple beauty of a flower that grows wild along our countryside paths and coastal landscapes.

A meaningful gift for a May birthday, or a little reminder to embrace life’s simple pleasures.

April’s flower of the month: the Bluebell

This piece captures their magic in solid form: three hand-fabricated sterling silver bluebell flowers, gently cascading, paired with a rich amethyst bud for a subtle touch of colour and calm.

Each element has been shaped, formed, and finished by hand in my Dorset studio, inspired by the wild beauty just beyond the workshop door.

A small tribute to one of spring’s most beloved blooms.
