Annie established Artgems jewellery in 1995 and now works full time from her South London studio in Dulwich, making and designing collections of Jewellery and carrying out bespoke commissions for clients. She regularly exhibits at shows, fairs and selective galleries throughout England and Scotland.
Her designs are influenced by structures and shapes found in marine life and geological forms. Consequently, her work has an emphasis on three-dimensionality, exploring convex and concave sculptural structures and using patterns and textures found on pebbles, rocks and shells. She works in silver, gold and platinum, incorporating a range of precious and semi-precious gemstones and beads to enhance the hand pressed metal shapes and give accents of colour. Annie designs jewellery for both men and women and an extensive range from necklaces and pendants to rings, cufflinks and earrings can be purchased from her online shop. Her jewellery is highly wearable and distinctive.
She is well known not only for her meticulous finish and high standard of production, but also for her inspirational designs.
Right from the outset of her career as a jewellery designer she has concentrated on producing collections of work with consistent themes, shapes and designs. Her work is like her handwriting; personal, individual and unmistakable. Buy directly from Annie's shop or commission a special piece.
