Welcome to Molten Rocks Studio

I am a designer and maker of contemporary sterling silver jewellery, based near the Herefordshire/Welsh border. My rural studio is a converted barn at home where I am surrounded by a visually rich environment with beautiful rugged hills, dense forests, kites, hares and the odd grazing sheep.

All my jewellery and small artefacts are handcrafted from Ecosilver - 100% recycled solid sterling silver.

Inspiration

I use a variety of techniques such as forging, etching and reticulation which enable me to manipulate the metal and create characterful and tactile surfaces. Strong emphasis is placed on experimenting with the silver metal and transforming it to produce diverse textures and sculptural forms.

Semi-precious gemstones and pearls are at times added to the pieces, complementing the designs and adding vibrancy and contrast.

Influence comes from organic forms and geological structures, reflecting the natural world and the processes of erosion and life cycles.

Current Work 2024

I have been invited to display my work at the new Flock Gallery in Kington which is due to open on 16th March. Later in Spring I am looking forward to taking part in Marches Makers Festival which takes place over the May Day holiday weekend in and around Kington. I will be exhibiting at St. Mary's Church for the three days of the festival, from 4th May to 6th May.

If you wish to order a design from my website please email me with your enquiry. I do not hold large quantities of stock as a good proportion of my jewellery is handcrafted to order and items may vary slightly as each piece is individual and unique. Jewellery and small decorative objects are hallmarked at Assay Office London where appropriate.

Necklaces have sterling silver chains or chokers and earrings are finished with sterling silver ear studs or wire fittings.
