Inspiration and Process
For this collection I fell in love with geological formations, coastlines, fault lines and river beds. I collected local specimens from the fascinating area around Clevedon, where one type of rock intrudes into another creating veins of colour. I wanted to recreate these patterns and contrasts in the silver and marble jesmonite.
Each piece starts as a freehand drawing creating the curves and points afresh every time. This forms the pattern that I cut and assemble by hand in my studio from silver sheet and wire. The river of colour is created by casting hand dyed marble jesmonite into the piece and sanding it back to reveal the pattern.
Details
The navette drops measure 45mm long and are 12mm at the widest point. Round silver dots are cast into the midnight blue marble jesmonite and midnight marble dots appear in the silver. Each pair of earrings has a unique design with the same combination of details, the current pair in stock is the one pictured.
These earrings are made from recycled sterling silver, the pins and scrolls are also made from recycled silver in the UK. Jesmonite is an eco-friendly resin (non-toxic and VOC free) that’s mixed with natural minerals to create a marble stone effect.
Packaging and Care
Everything from Promises Promises comes hand-wrapped in bespoke packaging, perfect for giving (especially to yourself!). Each piece is wrapped in my own design tissue paper inside a branded box. A storage pouch for safekeeping and a care pack with polish pad will keep your piece looking like new.
Sterling silver is best stored in the box or pouch it came in and polished using the pad provided when needed. Jesmonite can be cleaned using a soft toothbrush and warm water with washing up liquid. The Jesmonite has been sealed for easier cleaning and more durability.

About Me
I set up Promises Promises in 2014 as a brand for the jewellery I was creating while working in London in the fashion industry. Since then I’ve been a jeweller full-time, creating innovative eco-friendly jewellery from precious metals and jesmonite, collaborating with Laphroaig, the Science Museum and the British Library and selling in shops across the world. In 2020 I moved back West, gaining new inspiration from the landscape around me. Now I create small collections of hand-made jewellery, based on the things I love and crafted in my Bristol home studio.
