About Meg Matthews Jewellery
I am a jewellery designer and maker based on the North Norfolk coast. When I'm not in my workshop you will find me combing the beach for treasures and inspirations.
Meg Matthews Jewellery Description
Heres a little bit about me. . .
Brought up in the sunny seaside town of Sheringham on the North Norfolk coast, I grew up exploring the great outdoors, building sandsculptures on the beach and creating dens in the woods. On rainy days I spent hours on different arts and crafts.
I have always been fascinated with making things, especially jewellery. I would create jewellery out of anything I could find with the hope I was making something more beautiful and giving objects a new lease of life. This spurred me on to enroll in a 3 year university course based around craft and design, BA(Hons) Glass, Ceramics, Jewellery and Metal at UCA Farnham. This course allows me to learn about a huge range of materials and techniques as well as craft and design contextual studies.
My work has often been inspired by the seaside as this is where I feel most at home. More recently I have been inspired by peoples attachments to jewellery and the memorys that the jewellery holds.
I now create handcrafted and bespoke jewellery with a personal and sentimental approach to design.

Over the last week I have been setting up a new workshop, I am determined to keep this one a lot tidier! Today I created a polishing setup with a Henry hoover extraction to try to keep my polishing dust contained, so far so good! . . . #workshop #jewelleryworkshop #polishing #silverjewellery
Throwback to last summer! I loved making these chunky wedding bands, with a light texture. After the honeymoon I was presented with a jar of beautiful seaglass found in the south of France.
I love #marchmeetthemaker but let’s face it I’m pretty rubbish at social media, I’m late already so let’s see how this month goes! I’ll start the month on Day 2: Hands at work. . . . #seaglassjewellery #silverjewellery #handsatwork #benchpegportrait #benchpeg #workinprogress
