My name is Jessica Van Den, and welcome to Epheriell! All jewellery here is handmade by me in my home studio.
I am currently the Designer in the Spotlight here on Madeit - to read my full interview - http://www.madeit.com.au/spotlight.asp
I adore working with metal – my favourite material. I’m also passionate about using recycled and reclaimed materials in order to make my jewellery as eco-friendly as I can. I now source all of my sterling silver and gold from an Australian company, which supplies 100% recycled metal.
My style is both contemporary and classic – creating clean and stylish designs that can be worn every day. I craft each piece myself, putting care and passion into my creation – just for you.
I started creating jewellery in 2008, with the normal beads and bits from the local craft store. I quickly moved onto using raw materials and doing a silversmithing course opened my eyes to a whole new range of possibilities.
I am also a total handmade and indie junkie – and I share my obsession at my blog – Epheriell Designs – ‘handmade style, indie art + design, and crafty resources’.
If you love handmade, craft, art and design as much as me, you’ll find a few pretty things to check out over there.
I also edit and publish *bespoke* zine - a zine by the handmade community: for the handmade community - http://bespokezine.com
