Anna graduated from Loughborough University in 2012 with a first class honours and is based at Cornwall’s creative hub, Krowji.

Fascinated with traditional basketry techniques, Anna practices skills which explore the heritage of this centuries-old craft and are crucial to forming her contemporary Jewellery. Through her work Anna hopes to share her appreciation of the beautiful basketry of a slower-paced bygone era, when makers were in tune with their natural surroundings and materials used.

She has also been teaching jewellery making for the last two years at Cornwall College. At her studio which fits four people, she teaches a range of jewellery workshops, either taking inspiration from Cornish heritage, such as the mining industry and fishing industry or jewellery technique classes, such as ring making.
