I am a designer and maker of contemporary sterling silver jewellery, based near the Herefordshire/ Welsh border. My rural studio is a converted barn at home where I am surrounded by a visually rich environment with beautiful rugged hills, dense forests, soaring kites, hares and the odd grazing sheep.
I produce unique pieces that are handcrafted from Ecosilver - 100% recycled solid sterling silver.
Zoë Wright BA(Hons)
I use a variety of techniques such as forging, etching and reticulation which enable me to manipulate the metal and create characterful and tactile surfaces.
Semi-precious gemstones and pearls are at times incorporated to compliment the designs and add vibrancy and contrast.
Strong emphasis is placed on experimenting with the metal to produce diverse textures and sculptural forms.
Influence comes from organic forms and geological structures, reflecting the natural world and the processes of erosion and life cycles.
During the "Small Wonders"exhibition in May and June a selection of my work will be featured in the gallery and on the website of Made in the Marches Gallery, Kington.
If you wish to order an item from my website please email me with your enquiry. I do not hold large quantities of stock as a good proportion of my jewellery is handcrafted to order and items may vary slightly as each piece is individual and unique. My jewellery is hallmarked at Assay Office London where appropriate and is presented in bespoke Moltenrocks packaging.
Necklaces have sterling silver chains or chokers and earrings are finished with sterling silver ear studs or wire fittings.
Here is a small selection of my jewellery.
