Alina Jessipovich
Inspired by ‘Polly Pocket’ toys, "intrigued by the
tiny world in my hand"... this fascination led Alina to develop jewellery
that is a landscape of its own: something to play with, look at and
imagine things about, right on your finger. Inspiration comes from big
cities, densely populated areas, and urban skylines. Made from small, found objects when grouped together, they form cities of
their own. Her jewellery
gives these discarded objects new lives and new meanings.
Alina Jessipovich studied BA in Jewellery Design at Middlesex and is based in London.

Annette Dickow
Annette Dickow graduated as a goldsmith in 2002, and as a precious metal
designer from The Institute of Fine Metals, Denmark in 2005.
Her work ranges from "one of a kind" pieces for exhibitions to small collections. The jewellery is often created on the basis of small stories that originate from a curiosity for and reflection on human ties, exchanges and values. She enjoys placing humorous twists in her work.

Tobias Alm
Tobias Alm was born 1985 in Stockholm, Sweden and studied jewellery
design at Ädellab, Konstfack. He graduated in 2009, and since then has
been working in a workshop/studio in Liljeholmen, central Stockholm.
Tobias works mostly in jewellery art, but his work extends to sculpture. Currently he is working on a series of sculptures that will soon be exhibited in Vevring, Norway. Last summer Tobias Alm launched a new series of jewellery, that will be exhibited in a series of solo shows in 2012.

“My creative process has lately not been much about words or concepts. It often starts with exploring a shape or a material, which starts a flow of creation and research.
I am fascinated by improvisational methods, and believe in their power to take me the places a linear logic process cannot.
In my work I materialize experiences. I pick up features from things that surround me, and let them get reshaped and combined in interesting ways.
In previous work I have been interested in things such as organic structures and contrasting combinations. Lately it seems like I am fabricating a history, giving the objects traces of experiences from the past. I’m investigating how shapes can show traces of diffuse functions and history.”

Sevan Bicakci - 'Lord of the Rings'
Sevan Bicakci's 'Namesake' collection incorporates hand-crafted Turkish architectural
miniatures, and underwater sea creatures like snails, lobsters and octopus.
Born and raised in Turkey, one of a kind jewellery designer Sevan has been a bench jeweller for over twenty years, beginning his training at just 12 years of age. Each piece is handcrafted from 24K, 18K yellow and rose gold, sterling silver with uniquely cut gemstones and antique cut diamonds. His work is inspired by the Blue Mosque from 17th century, the 6th century Hagia Sophia Church, the Topkapi Palace from 15th century and many childhood memories.

Zoe Arnold
Zoe Arnold trained at Central St Martins, graduating in 2003. She started as a sculptor and this influence can be recognised in her jewellery, or 'wearable forms of art'. It is a cross between jewellery and miniature sculptures, and she resists the temptation to be labelled and categorised, often producing jewellery accompanied by other pieces. In addition to using precious metals and gem stones she also collects objects and her work can be accompanied by, for example, a limited edition book of poetry which she has written as part of the process of making her work.
Zoe Arnold also makes 'precious automata', (left, 'The Children & The Golden Tree' inspired by stories and created in precious materials.
