Jewellers are very aware of sustainability issues, as traditional jewellery materials come from non-sustainable sources (precious stones and metals). This book will encourage makers to recycle and show how pre-loved or traditionally throw-away materials can be reconsidered and re-used.

Sustainable Jewellery Zusammenfassung

Sustainable Jewellery Julia Manheim

Sustainability is foremost in the minds of many designer-makers at the moment; there has been a surge of environmentally-sustainable developments in the collections shown recently at Origin, New Designers in Islington, Pulse and Collect. Jewellers are very aware of sustainability issues, as such a large proportion of their traditional materials come from non-sustainable sources (precious stones and metals) and they have traditionally used acids, dyes, and other techniques not renowned for their eco-friendliness. This book will encourage makers to recycle and show how 'pre-loved' or traditionally throw-away materials can provide new inspiration. Includes stunning photos of the work of established and experimental jewellers from around the world.

Sustainable Jewellery Bewertungen

'Packed with witty photography and commentary from leading designers in this area, this may make you see recycling in a new light.' Crafts magazine online, June 2009 '...full of imaginative ways to re-use everyday items.' www.karenplatt.co.uk (June 2009) 'an open and inviting selection of work in an eclectic mix of materials from discarded and distorted found objects, everyday plastics, curious and well as conceptual and ephemeral manifestations.' Findings, Autumn 2009

Über Julia Manheim

Julia Manheim originally trained as a jeweller, and became well-known in the 1980s for her large-scale but light sculptural bodywear, made from materials such as painted newspaper and plastic. She is also a sculptor and installation artist with a passion for sustainability and recycled materials. She often uses discarded paper, glass, plastic, wood and metal to make her own work, and then reuses them again to create new work. Julia is Senior Lecturer on the BA Jewellery Programme at Middlesex University, where her students are encouraged to explore the concept of jewellery broadly, using materials appropriate to the idea they want to express rather than purely for the sake of convention.
