ACJ Pop-up Precious

The past wee while I've been working hard, getting new jewellery together and co-organising the Association of Contemporary Jewellery Edinburgh's first exhibition, with my fellow members.

The opening night was Friday (thanks to all who came and got drunk with us!) The show is on until the 2nd of December, so get yourselves down to Framed gallery Gayfield square, to have a look.

In the meantime here're some photies for you.

Many thanks to Christopher Ness for the use of his Dundas street workshop.

Commission

Just to pimp myself out a little....

As well as making my own jewellery and working freelance for Christopher Ness of Edinburgh, I've also been doing some commissions lately. (I need a nap)

This was for a 21st birthday, the client wanted something featuring the caduceus. (Here is the image she supplied)


She also wanted a purple or dark green stone to be featured. Luckily for me, my new favorite stone dealer, Maira of Gemstones Brazil was able to supply me with the perfect Amethyst.

Here is what we came up with, the photo doesn't really do Maira's amethyst justice but there are some more here.

Client and birthday girl are both pretty chuffed.

Walls and Such


My wee studio space has been in a bit of a mess of late (I usually keep such a tight ship!) But It'll all be worth while when we get our new walls.

My studio pal Dave Lemm, and his Dad have been hard at work...



Looks pretty wall-like yeah? Check how rank my desk is...



Nice!

Here's a photo of some earrings to make me feel better.

Hello!


A very lovely pair of sisters, (does that sound rude? I was hoping that would sound a bit rude) who call themselves Sundries and plunder, have featured one of my necklaces on their treasury list.

This is the Necklace...



Here's the link to the treasury.


I think it's a sweet wee treasury. Good colours.
