Becky Dockree –Things on My Mind

Becky Dockree’s “Things On My Mind" brings her creative ability to life with an imaginative collaboration of words within her pieces. Bold and beautiful, her work is wholly inspiring.

Design space : The Mailbox, Birmingham

Design space are a collective of independent designer makers producing
individual selections of jewellery, silverware and table ware. Their work is now
on display and available for purchase in the jewellery box, as a part of style
renaissance in The Mailbox, Birmingham.

Niessing : schmuck

There is a story behind every piece of Niessing jewellery. Many ideas and developments for new pieces of jewellery are closely connected to Niessing's history. It all starts with an idea, a thought, an emotional desire. The design team is integrated in the manufactory and lays the foundation. Niessing lives and breathes design. Everyone contributes in his or her own unique way.

Rebecca Rose : Sculpturings

Rebecca Rose’s work blends luxury with urban street art, as well as activism relevant to social issues; the approach offering a way to see and prompt discussion on social change as the work moves with it's owner, rather than art waiting for its audience. Sculpturings are that art form. Functional mobile sculpture on a small scale.

Karl Fritsch : Rings Without End

"There is always a reason to make a ring. But I can also make a ring without a reason."

Karl Fritsch has been primarily making rings since 1992, apart from an occasional other piece of jewellery in between. He works on dozens of rings simultaneously, moving between them, starting a new ring whenever a fresh idea appears.

Jae Hyo Lee : Wooden Furniture

Quite frankly amazing furniture from Jae Hyo Lee, whole logs are attached together and carved into beautiful objects.

Ventury : Rock Royalty

Ventury Paris’s philosophy is simple: design should pay homage to the past, while embracing the future. It should take on a new sensibility, a bold approach. It should rock tradition.

Silva/Bradshaw : Numbers

Numbers is based upon the manipulation of simple geometries. Circles and Spheres were cut, stretched, and twisted to create rings and pendants that have an evocative and elegant shape to them.

Fflur : Hiraeth

Fflur’s spectacular final collection is flowing and feminine in style, it features elaborately hand cut leather detail, embellishments including Swarovski crystalized ram skulls and handmade high heeled clogs, all fused in a romantic western theme.

Ayala Serfaty: In Vein

 

'In Vein' is the first solo exhibition of Israeli lighting and furniture designer Ayala Serfaty in the united states.

Marine Gaveau : Dégustation de Gressinis

 

The simple form of these hand blown vessels by Marine Gaveau, named “Dégustation de Gressinis” which translates as “Tasting Breadsticks” (thanks google), offers an interesting new solution to serving aperitifs.

Debra Baxter : From the Hip

Debra Baxter uses huge alabaster, amethyst and smokey quartz crystals to create “from the hip”

Tomas Rucker : Knives

 

Tomas Rucker creates beautiful, yet functional and purposeful knives, with use of oxidation and contrasting colours along with interesting curves and design.

Miguel Vaz : Geometric Vase

 

Big fan of Miguel Vaz’s geometric porcelain vases', although still in the concept stage I would love to adorn some part of my home with one in the near future.

Birgit Marie Schmidt : I Can't Seem to Get Rid of the Horses

 

Birgit Marie Schmidt’s graduate Jewellery collection collection is a transformation of her own recurring childhood fantasies of wild horse adventures into wearable jewellery pieces. The collection contains various neck pieces, rings, hoop earrings, bracelet. All hand made by the designer.

Simon Ålander : Water, malt, hops & yeast

 

Beautiful typography can really influence the way a consumer looks at a product, in this case, the font created by Simon Ålander seems to fantastically match the essence of the product.

Donn Koh : Origami Sharpener

Inspired by the understatement and abstraction of Japanese Origami, this sharpener derives its appeal from the same essence: Creating structure, function and form out of sheet material, using simple processes, with no excessive shapes that ‘over-describe’ the object.

Kristen Baird : Honeycomb Ring

Interesting use of mixed materials sterling silver and glass, from Kristen Baird with her Honeycomb Ring

Ivan Venkov : King’s Folly

 

King’s Folly is a project by Ivan Venkov based on the ideas of polarity and exploitation, the composition polarizes the pure natural element, which resonates in black sculpt of the deer and the golden manifestation of allegorical cabinet, which aggregates elements of mundane ravishment.
