Angela Learoyd

“All my jewellery is designed and handmade in my workshop in Stirling. I usually create pieces in silver, often geometric in shape with textures and patterns inspired by nature. Contrasting textures also feature such as satin finish/high polish. I enjoy experimenting with a variety of techniques such as fold forming, roll printing and etching. Manipulating metal by scoring, folding, hammering and rolling, allows me to produce three- dimensional pieces.

A rich colour variety is very important in my work, which often incorporates semi-precious gemstones and pearls. My collections include rings, bracelets and bangles, earrings, brooches and neckpieces. I also produce one- off pieces and also small ranges of themed pieces.

I studied Jewellery Design, Production and Business Management at Lauder College in Fife and
was awarded the college prize for Jewellery Studies 2006.

I am a Member of the Association of British Jewellers, the Association of Contemporary Jewellers and Visual Arts Scotland”.
