Silver & Stone

Sandra Kerns Jewellery is an independent jewellery design and manufacturing studio. My aim is to provide unique items of personally designed, hand-made jewellery using semi-precious stones and silver. I have always loved jewellery and working with my hands to create things. I started out by making beaded jewellery and then in 2011 I was lucky enough to move to Cape Town, South Africa for nearly 3 years and had the opportunity of learning silversmith techniques in the workshop of The Gold of Africa Museum. While there, I was able to refine my existing techniques and make pieces from the smelting stage right through to the finished piece. I have also trained at The London Jewellery School and have attended a course at Van Cleef & Arpels in Paris The use of different materials, methods and my training in different locations around the World have influenced my designs immensely and I’m always on the lookout for ideas from architecture, other cultures and nature.
