QEST Scholars at Holland & Holland

Some time ago I was approached by Holland & Holland, well known as 'The Royal Gunmakers' in Mayfair. I was delighted to be asked to showcase a selection of my jewellery over the festive period, alongside four other craftspeople from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust in their store; this included a leather worker, a knitter, contemporary basket weaver, an illustrator and me! 

Each scholar brought a selection of work appropriate to the store and I decided to make a few new special pieces for the event including this flying pheasant bangle in hand pierced silver with speckled brandy coloured snakeskin and backed in bright scarlet snakeskin.

The Christmas party was held on the evening of the 8th November in the newly expanded Mayfair store. It was a fantastic opportunity to meet future customers and explain some of the processes and inspirations behind my work!
