From her atelier in the Basque region of southwest France, British goldsmith Sally handcrafts fine jewellery in silver and gold. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings, she blends traditional techniques with vibrant gemstones to create timeless, wearable pieces with a distinctive touch.

Inspired by nature

Sally finds inspiration in many forms, but it always begins with the metal. Working at the bench is a process of exploration — each piece evolves through hands-on experimentation, guided by intuition and craft. Textures, whether drawn from nature or the built environment, are a constant influence, often captured and translated into metal. The raw beauty of silver and gold, combined with the endless possibilities offered by gemstones, brings a sense of excitement to every design. Simplicity, when it serves the piece, is embraced as a striking element — allowing form, material, and detail to speak clearly.
