Biography

Barbaras pieces are influenced by her travels and everyday life.  Taking inspiration from such places as India, Morocco, Egypt and London.  These places have fuelled her imagination and influenced my jewellery.  Incorporating these different ideas and allowed myself to create timeless pieces that will be returned to time and time again.

Studying jewellery and silversmithing at Sir John Cass University in London. Each piece is handmade in her workshop in London, using mainly sterling silver, plated in 18ct gold, and a variety of techniques, combining this precious metal with traditional processes such as wax carving, Keum- Boo (fine gold fusing) and reticulation.
