Ciara's Jewellery Journey

About My Jewellery Journey

I began making handmade jewellery from shells in 2020 during the beginning of lockdown

I collected shells off the local beach and drilled holes in them, allowing me to connect them to the silver findings I had purchased

When I moved home to Cork, I joined a silversmithing course, whereby I learned how to make real silver jewellery from scratch.
