After having her two children, Rach decided to do something different. She had always been creative, so on a whim, she bought a tiny second-hand kiln. After lots of late nights learning how to use her new tool, a love for jewellery making was born.
'I then took the plunge and set up my own jewellery business with the mission to inspire joy, through creating beautiful earth-aware jewellery.
My jewellery comes to life from my tiny studio nestled deep in the Cornish Countryside. It is a stone’s throw from the ocean, where I take all my inspiration. From stormy wintery walks to summer days with sandy toes, the ocean will always be in my soul.
Hence my jewellery has a sea-worn appearance, like it has just been washed-up on shore. A treasure waiting to be found.
I’m self-taught in the traditional techniques of pottery and metalsmithing. I can get lost in the process of designing and making, when I look up, I have created something beautiful and unique.
I concentrate on keeping my pieces feather light and comfortable. I want my jewellery to be loved and reached for every day. Each piece lasting a lifetime, so the jewellery and it's memories can be passed on the next generation.
Whilst completing a geography degree in the early 2000's, I realised how important our earth is, and how we need take care of it. Therefore, all my jewellery is made with a slow fashion ethos. I aim for the most sustainable methods and materials in my work, from eco-conscious recycled metals, to my solar powered kiln, recycling every scrap of clay and metal to create zero waste.'
