Creative Links: Using Colours and Textures to Enhance Your Jewellery (Bite-sized film)

By applying colour or texture to a piece, jewellers can add beauty and meaning to their work, enhancing designs both aesthetically and conceptually.

Creative Links: Using Colours and Textures to Enhance Your Jewellery - Taster Film

As part of our Creative Links talk series at the Goldsmiths’ Centre, experienced tutors and designer-makers Bekkie Ora Cheeseman and Nina Gilbey discuss methods for using colour and texture that are accessible to makers of all skill sets and budgets – as explored in their book Colour and Textures in Jewellery.

In addition to sharing their research and offering practical advice, the pair also reflect on the process of researching, writing and publishing a book about jewellery, and how other makers might follow the same path.

The Goldsmiths’ Centre would like to thank the panellists:

  • Nina Gilbey, Co-Author of Colours and Textures in Jewellery
  • Bekkie Ora Cheeseman, Co-Author of Colours and Textures in Jewellery
  • Kate Temperley, Student at the London Jewellery Workshop
