Based on crosses excavated at a Mediaeval Capuchin monastery in Bavaria. The concept is of Mankind emerging from an imperfect "chrysalis" stage into a perfect form with Christ.



The following brooches are individually handmade and are, therefore, all slightly different, whilst retaining their family likenesses. The bases of the silver with 18 ct designs are cast, but each one is individually textured, some are pierced, and then the 18 ct wires are added. Where stones are used, again, the types and colours vary, depending on whim or request. Please click on the photos to see an enlarged version.

COMMISSIONED DESIGNS
Sheila works in silver, 9 ct & 18 ct gold, all designed and made by her alone. Some pieces are handmade, some cast , some a combination of both. Designs are based on smooth, flowing organic curves or the movements of water around obstructions. She is interested in contrasts; a bright against a matt or textured surface, solid against open wirework areas, gold against silver, or yellow with red or white gold.

Stones, where used, are the focal point in the overall design, and she enjoys combining their colours in subtle ways. She particularly loves Opal, for its endless variety, and Tourmaline for its vast range of slightly offbeat colours.

She will happily set your own stones, either into an existing design, or into a new design created to suit your personality - or you can choose from her collection of very special Opals and other stones. This example is w 17 mm and h 19 mm. It is a
9 ct pendant with fire agate or can be set with an opal
