I have been designing and making jewellery for the last twenty years. My work combines both lapidary and silversmithing techniques. I work with a wide variety of gemstones, combining them with sterling and gold plated silver to create pieces that are often large, bold and sometimes dramatic.

I source and select from producers and wholesalers all over the world, as well as from Peru, and I will cut, hand polish and finish many of the stones myself, in some cases forging or melting silver on to them.

I was brought up in Peru and studied Art at University. My Peruvian culture, Artist’s training and European education influence my uses of colour and shape in unique ways to produce unusual and different ranges of jewellery.
