Biography
Ruth’s vision is to create a world renowned brand, creating limited edition, bespoke and one of a kind jewellery pieces that will one day be in museums like the V&A museum. She aims to create both high jewellery art as well as more accessible pieces that are comfortable for people with arthritis and disabilities. Ruth also aims to inspire people with gemstone knowledge and demystify the jewellery industry with talks and education about gemstones, as well as find creative ways to use recycled and damaged gemstones to lower her environmental impact.
inspiration
Ruth is inspired by sculptural details in decorative arts, such as carvings in architecture and furniture details, embroidery on luxury garments and microscopic formations of gemstones. Further inspiration comes from her clients stories. For example a recent engagement ring was inspired by the couple’s favourite beach. The design featured a fairmined sapphire - the exact colour of the sea in their favourite photo. The coastal outline was engraved on the inside and the ring incorporated the pattern of waves coming together, with the sapphire emerging from the waves. The couple didn’t know what they wanted until the bespoke consultation began, where Ruth was inspired by their story.
medium
Ruth works in gold, silver and platinum as well as precious gemstones such diamonds, sapphires and pearls, which have been ethically mined or recycled. Ruth also reworks clients own gold and gemstones, redesigning sentimental heirlooms into new pieces of jewellery. This service can even include recutting gemstones or re-alloying gold to create yellow gold from white gold and vica versa. Furthermore, Ruth is know for repairing the ‘unrepairable’ and has her own signature collection of delicate jewellery pieces, which are first hand stitched in lace, before being reworked into pieces of sculptural precious metal lace jewellery.
