Brymfull Design Studio, Jewellery Classes & Workshops
I have been a Jeweller and an Enameller for over twenty years. Shaping and manipulating metal gives me great enjoyment. There are many techniques that add exciting creativity to jewellery making such as piercing, etching, texturing and the many forms of vitreous enamelling. Through my teaching I can introduce my students to this beautiful and intimate craft; I can pass on the knowledge and experience that was shown to me.
