Jeweller Of The Month

Gwyneth Williamson

Gwyneth’s jewellery is colourful and contemporary combining silver with hand dyed/printed and digitally printed anodised aluminium. Gwyneth handprints using lino cut patterns and also creates digital prints playing with mark making to create layers of textural colour. Working intuitively, she never really knows what patterns and textures will emerge, making each piece unique. Gwyneth spent many years working as a freelance illustrator for children’s books, educational books and cards. In 2012 she booked herself onto a jewellery making course and was hooked. Gwyneth currently works from her studio in Wakefield.
