My Story
I’m a jewellery maker who loves turning molten sterling silver and recycled gold into pieces that make you feel amazing when you wear them — rings, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, all made by hand. I reuse as much metal as I can before reaching for a new sheet or wire, and that’s where the raw, organic feel of my designs comes from. Texture, patina, and a pop of colour play a big part in my work, whether it’s through gemstones, enamel, leather, or my latest obsession: micro‑mosaic.
I grew up surrounded by Algerian jewellery and Arabic calligraphy, and those early influences still guide the colours, lines, and textures in my pieces today.
My journey has taken me through Qatar, Cambridge, Sydney, Muscat, and Saudi Arabia — each place adding something new to how I create. But Saudi Arabia changed everything. I found myself alone with very little to do, and I realised many women around me felt the same way. So I started gathering women together. Small meet‑ups where we could talk, make, laugh, and feel creative again. Those moments became the heart of my work. Jewellery wasn’t just something we made; it became a way to reconnect with ourselves and with each other.
Now I’m based in the UK, still experimenting, still learning. I’m exploring enamelling to bring richer colour and a modern edge to my designs. My pieces are personal and expressive — rooted in movement, memory, and culture — made for women who love creativity, connection, and stories.
Alongside my own jewellery practice, I teach in schools across Hampshire, developing jewellery and metalwork programmes that support curriculum goals and help students find their creative path. Whether it’s building confidence, learning new skills, or opening doors to future creative studies, I’m passionate about giving people a space to explore, make, and grow.
Every piece I create carries part of this journey — shaped by places, people, and the joy of making something that becomes truly yours, from start to finish.
Thank you for supporting my small business!
