Stacey Whale, acclaimed jewellery designer and one of the bright lights and rising stars of the UK jewellery industry, was this year shortlisted for jewellery 'Designer of the Year' by the eminent UK Jewellery Awards 2008.  Fast becoming recognised for her unique and innovative designs, Stacey's jewellery is superbly handcrafted in gold and exquisitely set with a mix of unusual and vibrant gemstones.  Her timeless classic modern style is sophisticated, feminine and beautiful, with designs that are both cutting edge and of highly desirable styling.
 
Amongst Stacey's collection is her highly original, signature pieces, which employ her unique method of setting loose gems under a polished magnifying lens which gives the illusion they are floating in liquid.  These designs won her two gold and two commended Goldsmiths' Craftsmanship and Design Awards in 2007.  In other designs her delicate lace like settings allow the light to reveal the true colour and beauty of the gemstones she chooses.  Rather than use traditional claw settings, Stacey has devised a way of casting gold, inspired by the natural forms of native New Zealand flower pods.

As an artist designer, Stacey takes her inspiration from a broad range of natural forms and architecture and is especially interested in organic shapes and structures at the microscopic scale.  With the perfect balance of organic and industrial influences, each piece of jewellery is created to the highest level of craftsmanship using the finest quality materials. Truly beautiful, functional and visually intriguing, Stacey’s jewellery will certainly entice you to take a closer look.
