Heather Skowood Contemporary Jewelry
Recycled + Reclaimed Materials in Jewelry
As environmental awareness grows into a more urgent concern for our society, we are examining our impact on the natural environment as well as the impact on our health and personal environment more and more. As a result we are beginning to rethink how we approach everything we do in our lives to make our impact less wasteful, more sustainable and healthy. Our jewelry making practices should not be excluded.
The jewelry you see here is the result of Heather rethinking her jewelry studio practices and wanting to make them safer for herself + the environment. This new approach is leading to the use of many new materials and ways of working. If you have a question about something you see give a shout, Heather would love to here what you think!
Heather is currently writing a book for Stackpole Books about her jewelry using recycled + reclaimed materials that is to be released in autumn 2010. Continue to watch her blog for updates on the progress of the book + new jewelry. When published all new photos will by posted here.
