collette waudby

In 2014 Collette’s unique signature style was recognised when she was awarded ‘Jewellery Designer of the Year’ by The British Jewellers Association. This being the most recent of a number of awards. But her story starts back in 1992. She studied at the Humberside school of Art before specialising in Jewellery. She completed her studies at the world famous Birmingham School of Jewellery were she achieved BA Honours in Silversmithing and Jewellery.

She started her business in 1995 shortly after graduating and began working directly with the public on a variety of commissions. She has also worked on corporate commissions, gifts and awards.

Collette works at the bench in a traditional workshop housed on the first floor of a Victorian building in the heart of Birmingham’s historic jewellery quarter.

Her style is a fusion of aesthetic influences taken from nature, history and travel combined with the technical exploration of archaic forging and forming techniques. The original items that form collections are individually crafted by hand using the wealth of her knowledge, style and techniques. The pieces are thoughtfully & intelligently designed, using beautiful materials made to the highest standards. Aiming for the wearer to feel individual, elegant & sophisticated.

All items are beautifully packaged in a rich purple box with soft velour interior. We supply a gift card and can gift wrap on request and include a hand written message.
