Silver Jewellery Making: the book!

I am writing a book about how to make silver jewellery through 7 projects with my good friend and fellow jeweller, Janet Richardson. We have been working on it for over a year now and this summer we did a series of photoshoots at our publisher, Search Press. It's been a really interesting process and we still have quite a way to go before any actual book appears!!! Our publication date is 2 April 2020!

Here are some photos of what we've been up to:

Janet and me hard at work. I had to wear a white coat to avoid reflecting shadows on to the photos
