While the storms ravaged the Cornish coastline and the rains seemed to never want to stop, I have hunkered down in my riverside studio working on this truly statement piece. This one is particularly important to me as it features a stunning Tibetan turquoise sourced by my gemologist husband Miles. He travels to mines around the world meeting those involved in sourcing and processing precious gems and metals. The provenance of raw materials is extremely important to me as a designer-maker.
