Displaying

How would you display your jewellery?
Thinking of ways to display jewellery can be difficult. My jewellery has a very organic style so when displaying, I'd like to keep it simple so that the jewellery is the main focus. I think that it is very important for your display to relate to your jewellery, It should add to the message that you you are trying to send across to the viewer.

This is the piece of jewellery that inspired my collection for the diploma show.

Amuletic




M y Pierced Bangle(Filled with resin)... Inspired by Henna Designs.

In my religion(Hinduism), It is believed that Bangles should be worn on the wrist of married women to ensure the well-being of their husbands. It is considered to be a protective band.

Found Object


The last few weeks of 2008 were dedicated to My Personal Project. As a jewellery design student, i was meant to find myself and the style of jewellery that i wanted to make and display at the end of the year. We were given a list of themes to work under eg. Emotional jewellery, Magical jewellery etc.
This shell ring was created under the theme of "Found Objects"
