Katherine Bowman is by far one of my favourite jewellers. I have been following her blog for sometime, and now am lucky enough to work with her at CVHQ.
After going to school and learning the some of the 'right ways' of doing things with metal, it has been a challenging and self motivated time in the studio for the past three years.
Katherine is one of those jewellers who uses metal in a way that inspires you to look at form, shape and composition in a different way- the way you might cut, colour, or finish metal pieces, or develop something in wax.
Here are some examples of her work:
I couldn't find all the details for this beautiful pendant, but had to include it
18ct yellow gold, natural Ceylon Sapphire and natural Tsavorite Garnets
Sterling silver set with Ceylon Sapphires; ruby, yellow and orange sapphires and chrome tourmaline's

In addition to being an amazing jeweller and artist Katherine also has a dog called
Milly
Getting ready for a walk
Look at those cute little paws!
Maybe I find it refreshing too, as all the other ladies at work seem to be cat people; I have always identified as a dog person.
