I am a London-based jewellery designer and maker. My roots lie in the rural Middle East and much of my jewellery is created with memories of that landscape and its organic patterns in mind.
Another source of inspiration for my work is prehistoric art. I take reference from the simple, naive forms and give them a modern and fresh interpretation.
I enjoy combining different metals, usually silver with 18k yellow gold, as well as various textures, created by different finish of the metal. My work also explores combinations of brightly coloured semi-precious beads together with metal, as a way of creating visual contrasts and tensions in my designs
I hope you enjoy them,
Rinat
