Melissa Hunt Jewellery
"I trained as a jeweller and silversmith in Hatton Garden, London, now my practice is in the Shropshire hills.
When I was invited to supply Oriel Davies Gallery Shop I was really chuffed and began creating a collection with enthusiasm......then Covid 19 struck, for a while making it impossible to obtain materials.
So I started delving into the resources around me at the studio: precious and saved metals, stones, fragments of shell.
As a result, these pieces are created from re-purposed materials, treasures found or kept from the past."
