Hannah Wooldrage Jewellery

...
Shores Edge is a collection of jewellery made from 100% recycled silver and ethically sourced Australian blue sapphires. The tactility of the collection mimics the texture of Orkney's unique coastline. It communicates a rich history of the island's traditions and culture, allowing individuals to take part of the island away with them in a wearable form. The collection draws its inspiration from the natural erosion of the rocks along the shores of the Orkney Islands, a place deeply significant to Hannah since childhood.
During Hannah's university degree, she has taken on the role as Ethical Making Ambassador on behalf of Gray's School of Art, for The Scottish Goldsmiths Trust where she has helped educate staff and students about the importance of ethical making. Having a passion and commitment for creating an ethical practice, Hannah ensures that each piece she makes communicates a story and is made using recycled silver and ethically sourced gemstones.'
