Yanus & Eliza

Artist Yanus and Sculptor Eliza launched their jewellery business in 2009. Coming from a background in fine art, they have a different perspective from many other jewellery designers, and their wonderful jewellery is described as 'sculpture to be worn'. Influenced by theatre and fantasy, their designs are eye-catching, with for example gold rings in fragmented faces, and their use of feathers. They have also been designing for a new movie which will be released next year, Jack the Giant Killer. This award-winning pair look set for great things!

Gabriel Craig, selected jewellery

These super brooches result from a collaboration with Amy Weiks. The resultant jewelry playfully combined their disparate interests in historic decorative motifs, kinetic jewelry, implied narratives, line, and jewelry mechanisms. The brooches are made exclusively from recycled or reclaimed materials.

Melanie Bilenker Jewellery

This incredible brooch features a 'drawing' made in hair!

Brooch made from resin, gold and hair

This ring is made from citrine, gold and hair.
In a similar way to the Victorians, who kept lockets of hair and miniature portraits painted with ground hair and pigment to secure the memory of a lost love, Melanie Bilenker secures her memories through images rendered in lines of her own hair.
She selects quiet moments, the mundane and the domestic to preserve in her gold, resin and hair pieces of jewellery.
