new jewellery!

these are new jewellery I have been working on. wax print fabric from Ghana laminated within Perspex. just got shapes back from laser cutter. I got idea of juxtaposing West African fabric with 30s streamline design from our local high street of "Dalston". It's odd sight that all these 30s architecture and crazy market which is essentially West Africa central!
We will be exhibiting at TENT at Trumans brewery on Brick Lane between 23rd-26th September during London design festival. I will remind you about this later on.

NY-LONDON

My first New York experience was overall “amazing”. At the beginning, scale difference was so overwhelming but soon after my sole was gripping the ground properly and distracted by the thrill of being away from home! It was literally “lost in translation” experience, not sleeping much, spending some time alone and mostly having lots of fun.

snap from shop

we had this young lady, Georgia, sporting this blue vintage fabric owl matching her hair clip!!

off to NYC

I'm off to New York tomorrow.
participating "design mart" run by design boom (on line design mag).
it's an event within a ICFF (aka international contemporary furniture fair...)
so it is a big deal for me to be there and also leaving family for more than a week.

online shop will be open during the time but all the shipping will be held till my return on 24th of May. apologize for any inconvenience and wish me luck!
