Me & My Work

The tale of a certified tinkerer…

Emma Scott

Jewellery designer & maker

Origins

I am a self-taught experimenter, mad scientist, whimsical creator, artificer type. A girl in goggles. I always wanted to be a blacksmith; as it turns out, being a jewellery designer and maker suits me so much better. (The hammers are smaller!)

Inspiration

I love miniatures, tiny worlds within worlds and delight in micro details, rock pools, mossy logs, the underside of a leaf, a whole galaxy formed around a pebble. My fascination with these natural treasures comes through in my work.

Process

I pick up my materials and start from there. I rarely design anything on paper and when I do the finished result hardly ever turns out like the design, I always go off on a tangent, but it usually turns out for the best.

My Jewellery

I want to enchant people with my jewellery. If I can share just a little bit of my magic through my work, then that's a piece I can be proud of. 

Materials

I try to ensure all my materials and packaging are ethically sourced wherever possible and use 100% recycled silver to create my jewellery. All of my silver is UK sterling quality and nickel free.
