Purple
Coach House Gallery, February 2019.
We were excited to have been invited back to the Coach House Gallery for another exhibition based on colour, following the success of Yellow.
We were delighted to have taken part in the “Purple” exhibition at the Coach House Gallery, St Peters, Guernsey.
This time the theme was the colour ‘Purple.’ This exhibition included work from a group of invited artists
For this exhibition we created a triptych of show stopping jewellery in the best colour ever – purple. Once again, there is an accompanying essay, where we spill the purple beans.
> These are an enriched version of our bestselling style of waterfall earrings, festooned with purple freshwater pearls, a much more elaborate earring.
Lovely and light to wear, but beautifully long, dangly and eye catching, Each pearl hangs separately from the chain, and they spiral around the centre line in such a way that the earrings are a mirror image of each other.
< Mary Quant eat your heart out. Massive blowsy flowers in purple leather, embellished with amethysts and dyed jade hearts. Hugely over the top, outsized and not for the faint hearted. We love making things like these, real show stopping pieces.

Reflections of Occupation
The reflections of occupation exhibition took place in 2018.
Guernsey was occupied by the German forces for most of the Second World War, from 30 June 1940 until the “liberation” on 9 May 1945.
This theme was chosen by Visit Guernsey to coincide with the film, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society which was perfect for us with our range of Potato Peel Jewellery which was displayed in the Greenhouse Gallery at the Guernsey Museum at Candie.
