Cuttlefish casting provides the backbone of my making process as well as the fusing of precious and semi-precious gemstones into gold and silver. My inquisitive drive comes from the unpredictability of experimenting with fusing gemstones traditionally not able to withstand such high temperatures. My choice of using less durable but equally special gemstones is lead by questioning as well respecting tradition. The cuttlefish casting technique produces textures of raw unexplainable beauty and fuels my constant collaboration with the natural world. 

All the collection name’s derive out of long-lost slang sayings from the Victorian era reinstating my love towards reviving the forgotten.
