Leigh Fotheringham
Leigh Fotheringham's jewellery designs are clean and elegant with a contemporary feel. Her designs are initially influenced by the simple flowing shapes in nature which she translates into pieces of jewellery that are timeless yet bold in the use of unusual gemstones and pearls. She combines innovative design with traditional jewellery making techniques. She makes each piece entirely by hand, incorporating traditional fabricating with forging, stone setting and roll printing to introduce surface pattern into the metal. Leigh works in both silver and gold, often combining both metals, and frequently uses unusual combinations of gemstones and pearls in one piece.
