I'm Carol, a multi award-winning silversmith and jewellery teacher based in Yorkshire, UK. I work in solid silver, taking antique cutlery giving it new life as wearable art, plus creating accessible and inclusive jewellery for people with disabilities and health conditions. As a disabled artist, I campaign for disability equality and have a collection of sensory jewellery for neurodivergent or anxious customers. I'm obsessed with pearls and genuine gemstones, a qualified Applied Jewellery Professional with the Gemmological Institute of America and certified by the Cultured Pearl Association of America.

I teach the CBC jewellery School, where students learn a vast collection of techniques, from pearl knotting and stone setting to metalsmithing and wire wrapping. My classes are student-led and I'm a Fellow of the Institute of CPD, so you know you're getting quality teaching! I've taught a regular slot on TV, sharing my knowledge and top tips with jewellery makers at all levels. I've also volunteered at my local Repair Café, mending people's precious and sentimental jewellery for free.

I'm thrilled to have been awarded a SmallBiz100 and an IAlso100 by Small Business Britain. I came second in the national jewellery designer maker competition, Britain's Next Gem.

I'm a member of the Guild of Jewellery Designers and am happy to work with you to design the jewellery of your dreams. Hit the chat button to get in touch!
