SUSTAINABLE JEWELLERY SUPPLIERS

Ethically and environmentally sound choices in the jewellery supply chain are hard to find.

Here is a list of links to suppliers (available in Australia) of precious metals and gemstones that I would be happy to use, I like to get as close to the source as possible and talk to the owners of the business, I hope you find it useful. Please let me know of any other great suppliers or your views on this topic.

Montreal jewellery group?

I am moving to Montreal, Canada In June of this year and want to get involved with a jewellery/metals group over there. Does anybody know of any or have some links that I could look into?
I've just graduated from QCA and am going to take a bag of tools and equipment so I can make stuff in my new room.... Does anyone have some hints for packing jewellery tools lightly/space saving, or tips for small scale studio set up?
Thanks a bunch, Kate.

Jewellery Shock

Which jewellery/body object really shocked you when you saw it, offended you, and made you think......

“I can’t believe they made/exhibited that”

Why did it push your buttons?

For positive or negative reasons, I would like to hear about it.

I am currently putting together a jewellery theory lecture to be presented in the USA in March 2010. Please respond & let me know who & why. kathrynwardill@hotmail.com

exhibition opening and gallery launch at metalab!

metalab kick off 2010 with a newly renovated gallery space and brand new work by Emily Hunt.

6PM THURSDAY FEBRUARY 4

Emily Hunt is a curious artist, creating wearable works that explore and mimic the body. Using silicon to represent skin and muscle, symbolically sewing and wrapping the exterior of the piece, her works create an eerie yet familiar sentiment. Visually and conceptually there is an element of the hidden or concealed as forms are wrapped and intertwined, intimately revealing one an… Continue

Ring A Day Flickr Project

Beginning January 2010, a group of jewelers took up the creative challenge of making a ring a day. The participants are posting their images to a Flickr pool. Currently there are more than 100 jewelers (and others) participating and more than 1000 photos uploaded. It's not too late to join the fun. To get a feel for the project and learn how you can participate, here's a link:

Happy ring making!
