Alison Crowe, Ash House, Sat & Sun
I draw my design inspiration for my contemporary jewellery pieces from the forms and details found in nature and 20th century art, adding my own minimalist twist. I aim to create versatile and wearable pieces that will stand the test of time in terms of both craftsmanship and fashion.
Based in Henfield, West Sussex, where I have my own studio, I have been making jewellery for the past twelve years. After a career working mainly in higher education and inspired by studying an Art and Design History masters degree, I spent time perfecting my traditional metal working skills by taking evening classes followed by one-to-one tuition with a traditional trade jeweller. With this knowledge, I have continued to develop my learning, acquiring further skills and techniques such as casting and acid etching to create surface pattern.
Great thought goes into the design and creation of every piece of jewellery I produce, with an emphasis on quality of craftsmanship and finish. A range of precious and semi-precious gemstones enhance many of my pieces, carefully sourced from respected trade suppliers. All silver items are hallmarked* by the London Assay office with my unique ‘ADC’ maker’s mark, assuring the high quality of materials.
* all pieces over 7.78 grams
