#8 Jewellery Instagram Accounts to Follow
Thursday, 11 December 2014
Another Feather
Described as 'jewellery for the non-jewellery wearer', there's no necessary requirement to be a jewellery lover to follow Another Feather. Filled
with wonderful thematic and home-some visuals of perfectly positioned
minimalist jewellery in satisfying abundance in between images of her
travels, food, home life and everyday objects, each image has a
narrative and cosy feel. You can't help but feel a sense of nostalgic
warmth.
Ryan Storer
I was overly charmed by the understated romanticism of Ryan Storer's floating pearl aesthetics. Cultivating traditional pearls with contemporary yet sleek designs, the Broken collection segment is something I will forever be entranced by. I am thoroughly excited by what Storer will reveal next.
Ruifier
I've
followed Ruifier's progress before their official launch back in
September 2013 after their signature Icon ring first caught my love and
attention. The collections are stylishly presented without losing its
sense of fun and enjoyment, which is the embodiment of Ruifier
jewellery.
V Jewellery
It's
quite rare to find timeless and intricate jewellery staples that you
could also lounge at home in. V Jewellery shows you how to stylishly
layer on vintage inspired designs with a modern yet understated attire.
Oh and have you seen the sword ring yet?
Moxham
Clean,
slick and with stark monochrome tendencies, Moxham visuals are akin to
visiting contemporary art galleries with a 'white cube' vibe. The
wearable constructive pieces are large and bold yet creatively molded to
attire with clever dressing of clean lines and understated garments.
Jenny Sweetnam
Minimalist yet visually bold, Jenny
Sweetnam provides a subtle sneak peek of her studio space by showcasing
her aptly placed tools, materials and inspirations as a little teaser
of what's to come. Not only that, I couldn't get enough of her geometric
statement jewellery.
Lady Artigas
Beautifully
ethereal and in a constant dream-like state when viewing upon her
jewels, Lady Artigas narrates a beautiful story through her delicate and
minimalist collections.
Kattri
I will not wear anymore boring rings
is the perfect motto for Kattri's beautifully rich and striking
statement rings that will wow you from the get go if you're a
appreciator for clean lines and bold geometry. Influenced by minimal art
movement of the 60s and 70s with a fusion of modern art.
Jenny Sweetnam & Idamari at DESIGNER/MAKER
Thursday, 16 January 2014
A unique platform for emerging independent designers from across the UK, DESIGNER/MAKER held a marketplace in lively Southbank showcasing the best handcrafted works of hidden and unhidden talents. Upon hearing independent jewellery designers are also taking part in the event, it would have been an opportunity missed if I didn't attend.
Ignoring the drenching rain that evening the team of DESIGNER/MAKER made me feel welcome with a delightful evening 'brunch' from lepainquotidien (never been a big fan of mince pies however theirs were delicious!) After chatting to fellow talent-enthusiasts we wandered along the marketplace looking for a possible early Christmas treat. There in the middle of the stall I met Jenny Sweetnam and Ida Marie Molander of Idamari with their amazing collection of geometric-inspired jewellery all on show. I was in dreamland.
Due to my love for modern and edgy jewellery I've spent a long duration admiring their collections that were not too dissimilar from one another; as if it was a collaborative effort between these two young talents. My personal pick from Ida's collection has to be the bold Noble ring that is organic yet industrial-looking with its smooth edges; a playful mix of nature and modernity. And who could forget Sweetnam's Mountain ring, a glorified knuckleduster that is fierce and daring to be worn.
I came away from the event with Sweetnam's sterling silver rose thorn studs. I adore the texture, sharpness and daintiness to it. I seriously didn't know how I managed to restrain myself from purchasing more from their collection but hopefully it's not the last of the investment. So change from the norm and wear geometric/organic jewellery that will guarantee to grab your attention.

Rock It! Jenny Sweetnam's Sleek Mountain and Cloud 'Knuckleduster' Rings
Wednesday, 28 August 2013
8. The rings reminds me of one of those childhood toys where you have to try and find the correct hole to fit the shape in. But this is just part of Jenny's playful packaging for her insanely geo-gorgeous and ultra modern three finger ring, or otherwise known as a knuckleduster that doesn't cause too much damage (to your wallet that is).
Made from 22ct gold plated brass and sterling silver, the rings are bold statements on its own and would certainly make any outfit a knockout addition.
