Artist Bio

Now based in Co. Fermanagh, jeweller Fiona Kerr studied at Buckinghamshire University College in High Wycombe, then moved to Northern Ireland. Her first collection came out in 2002, and since then Fiona aims to create classic, elegant jewellery with a modern twist – jewellery to be loved and cherished and above all, worn.

Her early appreciation of the natural world shines through in all her collections, which are hand made in her small stone built workshop. Describing her work process, Fiona says: ‘I love working with precious metals at the jeweller’s bench, combining contrasting textures with the polished lustres of gold and silver, adorning with shimmering precious and semi-precious gemstones, the process of creation is an endless fascination for me.’
