I discovered the wonderful world of lampwork beads after trying to find unique focals beads. 

I have been making jewellery since childhood some thirty years ago, so in discovering lampwork I instinctively recognised my future calling in the creation of unique beads and one-off pieces.

My journey in lampworking-creation began in April 2007 with individual tuition from Mike Poole, Diane East, and the wonderful Sally Carver.

 I now love nothing more than creating my beads in my studio in West Yorkshire.

As seen in the studio-photo below I have a minor torch and oxycon set-up, and in a digital Paragon Kiln I anneal my beads.

My beads are made on 2mm mandrels unless stated otherwise.

On this website you will find my beads for sale, offered to like-minded people, who would like to own unique art beads for your own jewellery masterpieces.

You can also view the jewellery I make in the gallery, and due to requests, I have listed a new page on the site offering my jewellery for sale. 

I hope you enjoy browsing my website and will come back often to see what I have to offer.
