From simple beginnings Fiona has gradually built her portfolio of contemporary jewellery, her innovation, attention to detail and exacting eye for quality ensures her reputation as one of Northern Ireland’s most notable jewellery designers.

Now celebrating over 20 years in business she has relocated from the North Antrim Coast to the beautiful Lakelands of County Fermanagh and continues to draw inspiration from her surroundings.

Using traditional jewellery making techniques all the jewellery she creates is made within her small stone-built workshop. ‘It’s where the magic happens’ she says, ‘I like to design and make jewellery that has a modern, contemporary feel, making the wearer feel elegant, effortlessly.’ Fiona achieves this to great effect by combining contrasting textures with polished surfaces of golds and silver, adorning pieces with shimmering precious and semi-precious gemstones, creating her handmade contemporary jewellery.

Fiona has consistently shown her work through exhibitions, galleries and selected outlets throughout the UK, Ireland, and further field.
