A special dress for the lovely @musee.roo ❤️ What a treat it was to make this one! The Fig style in Tomato silk organza, with custom embroidered brooches (the Roo lion and M.R initials), adjustable ties, and deep hem.

We’ve recently crossed paths as we’re both makers in the south west. Roo frequently trades in Frome which is now where I live, but I’ve been a fan of her work for a long time- my first purchase was a Phalloi ring 🍆 ♥️ and I’ve lusted after a charm necklace for ages 🪬
Making friends who make beautiful things and trading with them has got to be one of the best parts of what I do ❣️ Feeling very lucky and inspired.

I also made a Pickle style but didn’t take any photos 🥒 🙃 and I haven’t picked what I’d like from Roo’s lovely hoard yet- will share more when I do!

If you haven’t drooled over Roo’s jewels yet you have to check them out @musee.roo to die for 💔

There are so many layers of beautiful symbolism in artefact which I made into a brown hand poked tattoo for @musee.roo

This object is a famous ancient Roman lover’s keepsake, an agate pebble(!) dating from the 2nd to 3rd Century CE.
It features a detailed carved motif full of romantic symbolism:
In the ancient Greco-Roman world, the earlobe was believed to be the seat of memory, this hand pinching an earlobe would be seen as a physical gesture meaning “Remember me.”
Hanging behind the hand is a string of beads associated with tokens of affection or Venus/Aphrodite, the goddess of love.
Etched along the left border is a clear Hellenic inscription in ancient Greek block lettering: ΜΝΗΜΟΝΕΥΕ ΜΟΥ
“Wherever you are, remember me (and) the love I bear you” or alternatively, “Remember my friendship wherever you are.”

These miniature tokens were intimate, portable gifts exchanged between partners, family members, or dear friends who were parting ways due to travel, military deployment, or business.

I’d love to do more historic, jewellery like pieces like this. Please fill out a booking form (link in bio) and I’ll get back to you with a quote and a link to my calendar. I’ve added new dates for February ‘27.

A little trip down memory lane with @saladdaysmarketlondon , Liv & Daisy, and their loveliest community that’s been such a special part of Manom’s journey🥹💛

So many memories, friendships and milestones. Feeling very lucky to be part of it all.

See you this Sunday at Corner Corner✨

P.S. I wish I could’ve included so many more amazing small businesses in this post! Head to @saladdaysmarketlondon to discover them💘💘

This hand poked, colour tattoo is based on a Scythian Ketos (Sea Dragon) badge from 5th-century BCE.
The Scythians were a legendary culture of nomadic horse-warriors and masters of metalwork who inhabited the Eurasian steppes from the 9th century BCE to the 3rd century CE.
The mystical beast is a Ketos, a sea monster or dragon from ancient mythology; merging the elegant, curved posture of a seahorse with wings, fish-like scales, and the ferocious head of a predatory dragon.
I used a combination of a darker espresso brown ink for contrast with a warmer brown, along with gold and white ink highlights. Thank you so much @musee.roo for trusting me with the beautiful piece. I would love to tattoo more historic artifacts along with experimenting with colours, for anyone who’s up for it please fill out a booking form (link in bio) and I’ll get back to your with a quote and a link to book in to my calendar - I’ll be adding more dates for Feb ‘27 before the end of the week.

It’s always a bit scary asking another crafts person if they want to trade but thankfully @musee.roo was so down for it and we had a really lovely time together. Bring back trading and bartering ❤️💫
I will be opening my books for Feb ‘27 asap and would love love love to do more pieces like this. I tattooed these in coloured inks on Roo’s request and love the warmth and tones in them.

Just about back to earth after @theotherartfair last weekend. It was a joy to meet so many wonderful people and have so many inspiring conversations. Such a big thank you to everyone who stopped by and interacted with my work, as an artist this fills me up 🥰 feeling the love from all the friends who visited and provided so much support.

Exciting to have pieces go off to their forever homes, to be enjoyed on walls and live lives of their own.

Had the best time spending the whole weekend alongside amazing artists, with my great neighbours and some new pals ❤️

Always a treat to wonder London and enjoy the cities delights, including a show I was delighted to catch by @warblingcollective, a happy stumble across artists mecca of art supplies and my cat pal for the weekend.

Now back to normality for a short while before I head to Spain for some breathing time and art thinking time 🔮

Thanks for being here everyone

London, I feel like I lived an entire lifetime in 7 weeks. And maybe that’s the beauty of this city - the way you can catch the tube and be on a totally different planet in 45 minutes, the way world-class-EVERYTHING is at your fingertips always, the way you can be whoever the fuck you want - and no one bats an eyelid.

I left two weeks ago and I’m still digesting this trip. I was able to go slow cause I was house sitting the whole time, but somehow it still felt like a whirlwind, and somehow I still have a hundred things on my “must-see” list for next time.

Thank you for a fantastic summer, London - I’ll be back ❤️‍🔥

(And yes I did go back and get that jacket!)

New work and feline company.

The Royal Academy summer show. So inspiring to see hundreds and hundreds of artists work!

The start of a new collection 🤍

On Mondays the Jubilee Antique Market in Covent Garden hosts a bunch of antique jewellery vendors. After 7 weeks of moving it to next week in my calendar, I finally went and got a couple of sweet pieces.

Partial solar eclipse ~ aka Bring Your Colander To The Park Day

I did a couple of glass classes with @songartcraft - my overarching intention for this whole trip is to learn as much as I can - and these are the first of what I hope will be many up-skilling workshops I try on this trip. I did the lampwork glass flowers and kiln formed glass workshops.

🤍

The incredible work of @musee.roo ❤️‍🔥

One of my house sits was on Columbia Road - I could see the flower market from the window!

It's all about connections

Rikki @souvenirhandmade has wrapped up the @jewellersacademy 2025-26 #silverdiploma with this gorgeous locket, featuring a 'cold connection' hinge

Lockets keep those you are closely connected to, close to your heart 🧡

But Rikki also reminded me of what a small world we live in, and how so many of us are connected without even knowing it

Rikki is based in Winnipeg, Canada, and she lives near Simone @montypaints

Simone and I were lucky to grow up by the sea in rural Northumberland. We spent our days swimming in the sea, climbing and creating hidden forts, making art and collecting newts and caterpillars 🐛🦋

Rikki also knows Roo @musee.roo who I've been friends with for years and who has her jewellery studio opposite mine. And the arty insect theme continues as a few of us will soon be descending into Bristol dressed as bugs to celebrate Roos birthday 🐛🐞🐜🪱🕷️🐌

These little coincidences often surround us as makers and humans ♥️

Well done to Rikki @souvenirhandmade on this beautiful locket and to everyone who has completed their #jewellersacademydiploma this year!

And let me know below if you have found your own creative connections in our little jewellery community 👇🏼

I’m always getting asked how many rings I actually own, so I finally got them all out in one place and counted them 💍✨

My collection is such a mixture of pieces I’ve collected over the years. Some are from amazing small businesses, some are inherited, some were presents, others came home with me from holidays and obviously there are a LOT of vintage treasures in there 💘

I love that I can look through my rings and remember exactly where so many of them came from or the story behind them. I’m a firm believer that the perfect ring collection is never actually finished 💫

Come and have a nose through my jewellery box with me and let me know which one you’d steal 👀💍

Yesterday consisted of a terrible menty b, lying under a blanket eating chocolate and making endless wish lists like an 18th century concubine.
Today we watched the dancing in of the Old Ale @harveysbrewery and ticked off another church visit.
Swings and roundabouts etc.

BRISTOL CREATIVES

Just two more days of this wonderful exhibition before these exceptional pieces head back to their Bristol makers.

We have been truly mesmerised by each of the unique creations and the wide ranging skills on display. From enamelling and chain making to gold-plating and stone setting.

Every piece of jewellery has been lovingly handmade to reflect the artists interpretation of their city.

Take a look at the reels in our highlights and stories today for a deep dive into each design ✨
