Inspired by traditional basketry techniques, Anna explores the heritage of centuries-old craft skills which are crucial to forming her contemporary jewellery. Through her work Anna hopes to share her appreciation of the heritage of the beautiful basketry of a slower-paced bygone era, when makers were in tune with their natural surroundings and materials used.
For her intricate coiled collection she uses enamel, gold or entraps gemstones into the naturally formed hole created by the traditional coiling technique, exploring the boundaries of hand-weaving with fine silver and gold wire.
