- Thickstrings x Sophie BreitmeyerArt, Literature and Fashion are all key inspirations for Jewellery Designer Sophie Breitmeyer.

Patterns always catch my eye, along with bold shapes and intricate details which all set the tone for my jewellery.” Earning herself a name as Nottinghill’s modern-day
- Thickstrings x SunnamuskCommissioned by Sunnamusk London, Thick Strings pictures were tasked with creating three images to represent the fragrance house’s line of scents.
