Bloom

The Bloom collection is inspired by my love of flower Garlands that began on a teaching residency I completed in Nepal in 2011. Nepal is a such a special place and I feel very lucky to have been able to visit there. From the start the uses of flowers for good luck and ritual struck me, and an interest in how we as humans interact with flowers began. Vibrant bursts of colour, delicate layers, dried petals, fresh flowers, bold designs. All of these elements and more inspired me to think about my own ways of stringing flowers together.

Bloom - first edition released Autumn 2019

Autumn 2019 sees the launch of the first edition from Bloom - POMONA. The Pomona mini series features rich and vibrant Jewellery in the beautiful warm tones of Rose, Gold and Bronze. I have combined individually textured Gold, Silver, and Brass floral layers to create these fun and exciting designs. I am working with surface manipulation techniques such as patination and Keum Boo for this collection to achieve highlighting and contrasting tones. I hope that you will enjoy the pieces from Pomona in this new direction of Bold and dynamic Jewellery.

The name Pomona comes from a beautiful tapestry of the Roman Goddess Pomona woven by Morriss & Co in the early 1900’s. Pomona was the Goddess of fruit trees and orchards and has been known to symbolise Autumn produce. The Pomona Collection will be accompanied by the FLORA mini series releasing in Spring 2020.
