Em Whiteford is an artist and maker based in Cumbria/Scotland whose work is deeply inspired by wild landscapes and coastlines. My jewellery designs are centred around capturing the patterns, textures and movement which can be found in the trees, the tides and the hills. Replicating this through natural design, whilst embracing and celebrating the imperfections which can be seen throughout our landscapes.

All Melanie’s work is handbuilt from stoneware or porcelain clay and handpainted/glazed with a final firing to ‘stoneware’ temperature – usually between 1220 - 1260 degrees Celsius which creates a greater degree of interaction between the clay and glazes/oxides. Porcelain earrings are set on sterling silver findings
