Joanna Wakefield Jewellery

Joanna Wakefield Jewellery "My work combines my two passions - jewellery and textiles - with the third essential element of my memories, observations and personality"

I am a jewellery designer maker based in York. My original training culminated in a Degree in Design, specialising in Textiles, which was no surprise having grown up in a family environment of 3 generations of needlewomen. My degree took me into work as a Fair Trade designer, travelling extensively around the world developing traditional handicrafts with producer groups and their artisans. After m

ore than 10 years I could no longer ignore my personal desire to extend and develop further creatively and so I retrained at York School of Jewellery as a designer jeweller. A huge part of my jewellery designs are influenced by haberdashery, stemming from a fascination that grew from admiring my Grandma's talents and fond memories of sorting through her button stash. I continue to expand my haberdashery collection, thrilled with its popularity. From unique cotton reels and thimbles, to various button inspired pieces including the use of vintage and found buttons. I am increasingly drawn to the thought of 'reviving' something and bringing an old or found object back to life. I incorporate such finds into my jewellery where I can. My jewellery reflects my memories, my observations and my musings. Thereby allowing me to tell the story and the journey behind each range. I feel very lucky to be on this new journey, I hope you like my designs as much as I have enjoyed making them. Thank you for your support xx

I hear you have a beautiful blue sky in York today!
So only 2 of these necklaces are left on the shop and the introducing of the new rope style chain really adds to the impact of this gorgeous necklace I think?
