Second chance for a Schmuck - Take it away Poland.....

If you missed Schmuck Munich,  and you happen to be in lovely Legnica, Poland then you can catch my work in Schmuck 2013 from 30th April - 8th June.

Raewyn Walsh - Pieces From the KIngsland Hoard

More mastery from Ms Walsh at Masterworks:

Pieces From the KIngsland Hoard

From the masterworks website:
'Circa 2012 - 2013'. Auckland jeweller Raewyn Walsh will be showing a selection of her latest creations, beautifully crafted necklaces in their most simplistic form. 

Raewyn likes to use traditional jewellery making and silversmithing techniques. Methods such as raising, chasing and repousse help create her collection. Her reference to the vessel is a feature of her pieces where it represents both form and formlessness. 

Nice Press from Italy

Thank you to Chirstiana over at Oro o mai più  for the kind words about my Take Away work ....  Check out the link or facebook page

High Five - Schmuck 2013 in Review

It has been about 30 hours since my 30 hour trip home from Munich.  I am happy to announce that I did not have a baby on the plane, even though the rumor of lifetime free flights was tempting.   I am nearly back to normal, although I did question my ability to operate heavy machinery as I got behind the wheel of the car today…..

There is so much to reflect on and share.  I will try to post everything I saw over the next few weeks.  So let’s start with the highlight and work our way from there…..

SCHMUCK 2013.

It was an amazing experience to see my my work at the show.  This is a mobile photo and doesn’t show the brooches that well, but it also glosses over how gigantic I am.  And it does show the shadows off quite nicely.

Thank you to Creative New Zealand who made this trip possible!  Hurray.

Handshake at Schmuck

I have just returned from Schmuck-tastic-ness that was Munich 2013.

I am still reeling from the event and in a happy jewellery daze.

My camera has been  momentarily kidnapped for the weekend, so snippets will have to suffice.

Here is the handshake install.
