Welcome to the website of Eleanor Watson, Jeweller and Colour Smith, specialising in commissioned pieces, and collections inspired by the city and nature within the urban environment.
About
Inspired by her environment, Eleanor designs unique collections in a range of mixed media, employing both traditional and contemporary jewellery techniques. She describes herself as a creative colour-smith.
Fascinated by pattern and texture from an early age, she merges elements of her surroundings, sensitively contrasting colours and materials to capture the character of her original inspiration within her pieces. Sometimes working from poetry or prose, and often from her own photography, her enthusiasm to draw our attention to the small details of life is evident. Her “through-the-looking-glass” view portrays in jewellery, some of the tiny marvels that are all around us when we stop and take the time to notice them.
