unique handmade art jewellery designed & assembled
by
Jennifer Dangerfield
Welcome to my Gallery
This showcase displays just a few of my favourite pieces of jewellery that I have assembled this year. The beads featured in these pieces are made by some of the finest glass and polymer clay bead artists currently working in the UK. Their beautiful & innovative work turns jewellery into a portable & kinetic work of art. It is a joy & privilege to have the opportunity to work with these beads. I owe an immense debt of gratitude to all the artists featured here.
As with all galleries, this is not a static arrangement. I have many more pieces that I would like to show you so please come back from time to time. I also hope to tempt you into visiting my gallery's shop which will open shortly. I have some new designs to unveil and these will feature more of these dazzlingly beautiful beads making each piece an exquisite & truly unique piece of art. How can you possibly resist?
