Personal Statement
Hannah Bedford's jewellery designs explore texture and form using the traditional processes of granulation, reticulation and Keum-boo (fine gold fusing). Working in gold and silver, Hannah creates a range of women's jewellery, from bespoke neckpieces through to delicate earrings and rings. Her new collection of rings sees the introduction of diamonds to her work, as they are carefully set within the gold granulation.
Collections are inspired by organic growth patterns in the natural world. Hannah uses granulation and gold fusing to create raised, textured surfaces that entwine each piece and takes great care to work on the underside of a piece too. The work is often led by these technical explorations, using them to play with scale, form and contrasting precious metals to create aesthetically beautiful forms.
Hannah's jewellery is exhibited nationally and she has been represented at Collect (2006 and 2007) and exhibited at Origin (2009).
