About
Emily Richard specialises in creating
original, quality pieces in precious metals. The jewellery is designed and made
in her workshop in Rugby, Warwickshire, using a marriage of both traditional
hand skills and modern technology. There is a particular focus on elegant,
flowing patterns and shapes that are built up of basic elements. From the
simple yet classic Logo range to the intricate award-winning Torus collection,
there is something to suit everyone. A selection of one-off pieces can also be
viewed in the Gallery section of this website, and individual commissions
are welcome.
Emily trained for four years at Birmingham's School of Jewellery, during which she won several awards for her work. Since launching Emily Richard Jewellery in 2008, her work has received further critical acclaim and is now available to purchase online and at various galleries, please see the Ordering, Events and Stockists pages for details.
