Sand & Sea

This jewellery collection started life as a university project back 2009. I retired the project to focus on others, then came back to it in 2012 where I made a series of bangle and necklaces that were capped with colour perspex. After producing this collection for sale at various shows and for clients, I then retired that project again in 2015 to focus on other projects. The version pictured here is the Sand & Sea collection in it's current form after I revisited it again at the start of 2019. I have now incorporated silver into the collection using CAD, 3D printing tech, and lost wax casting. As the title suggests, the jewellery in this collection contains sand, which has been dyed in various vibrant colours including blue, turquoise, purple, pink, red, and black. The sand moves within the jewellery as you move while wearing it. The jewellery in this collection may resemble glass but they are actually made from perspex that has been shaped in a wave form (an homage to water). They are complete with clusters of semi-precious stones either end and capped with rose gold plated silver. The current version of this collection features in Syrena Swimwear's promotional photography as part of their SS19 launch.
