JEWELLERY
STUDIO SHOP
I am delighted to stock unique pieces by mud larking jeweller Ruth Claydon of Moth & Magpie. Ruth repurposes ancient fragments and once considered 'broken' jewellery findings and incorporates them in to new contexts and designs with delightfully rustic, often modernist results.
'We're open - SOMAYER is a collaborative project/sideline for three makers, Ruth Claydon - Jewellery & owner of Moth & Magpie, Elliot Roberts, a leather worker & historical clothing lover, & Samantha Somers, sculptor & painter... We release several small sets of pieces a year, each one utterly unique in its embellishments & fixtures from Ruth Claydon's recycled & mudlarked findings & in their hand painted hand stitched work... These Micro-collections are made with our over enthusiasm for patina, materials, & with the concept of a small workshop that has the freedom to express & create with no 'retail' or mass marketing pressure. Each piece / set of pieces will be posted here when available. We don't generally do commissions as we're all committed to our own separate businesses but you can always ask - if we can fit in extra work we will, but apologies in advance if we are too busy. Keep an eye on this feed & www.samanthasomers.co.uk for new listings, Ruths other jewellery creations & our other artworks.
