Steelmaiden – Artisan Silversmith

“Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” ― William Morris

The rugged beauty of the Cornish landscape and coast are the main sources of inspiration for Anna, giving her creative free spirit room to roam. The natural forms and textures featured on Anna’s silversmithing are explored through the techniques chasing and repousse. These techniques beautifully combine creating aesthetically pleasing and functional pieces.

Having gained a BA (Hons) in Silversmithing and Jewellery, Anna has since gone on to complete a year at the prestigious Bishopsland Educational Trust.

Anna also works to commission, please contact her using the link above to discuss your requirements.
All items that can be seen on this site can be bought from Anna.
Other items will be on her stand, at makers fairs.
