DORETH JONES

Doreth Jones started creating jewellery in 2004; a piece she designed and was wearing caught the attention of the editor of Pride magazine, whom then featured it in the 2004 edition.  Doreth has not looked back; she continued designing one off pieces while undertaking adult education classes at CEL; City Lit and Holts Jewellery School.

Based in London Doreth continues to push the boundaries with experiments in both non-precious materials; wood, bone and precious metal sterling silver; gold; rubies and diamonds.  Doreth enjoys making jewellery that is different while still employing traditional jewellery making techniques.

Her inspiration comes from many forms the first being her parents; "my mother was extremely stylish and creative she knitted and crocheted.  Both my parents have an excellent eye for detail.  I am also amazed by the Micro Sculptor Willard Wigan, when I see his amazing work it inspires me that anything is possible".  

Doreth has made jewellery for Grace Jones, Erykah Badu; soul supreme Omar.
