Playyyyy
What are three things/ideas that inspire you?
Besides jewellery, I enjoy activities where I get to work with my hands such as sculpting, origami, baking, gaming, etc. I am also a big fan of procrastinating.
What other things do you do besides your jewellery practice?
This may seem a little funny but I’m a jeweller who doesn’t like wearing jewellery. However, there are these two rather thin bands that I wear on my left and right third finger. They stay on indefinitely and are my favourites!
What is a favourite piece that you’ve made and why?
