Rachel

Hi. I'm Rachel and I'm a jewellery designer and lover of all things summer.
Having worked in the British jewellery industry for little one woman bands, bespoke jewellery designers and some of the biggest bridal jewellery manufacturers in the UK for over eight years now my obsession for jewellery has grown a little bit out of hand"

Ellie

"I host monthly in person cut flower wax carving workshops and create silver miniatures inspired by my recent new found love of gardening. I have a jewellery workshop around the corner from Element and graduated from the School of Jewellery in 2010"

Roxy

"I have been living in Birmingham for eight years; I came here to study at Birmingham School of Jewellery. I went on to set up my own jewellery business and have my workshop in heart of the Historical Jewellery Quarter. The jewellery I design and make is authentic to my Persian heritage. Having grown up in a western culture but having deep Persian roots, I connect the two worlds and create exotic and contemporary designs"

Kate

"I am passionate about nature in all its forms and particularly, the raw beauty and cycle of life and death. I aim to preserve a little piece of the past for the future. Creating wondrous and thoughtful pieces of wearable natural history.

I now design a mix of ready to wear jewellery and bespoke pieces with nature and history at its heart"
