Buried Treasure

New Zealand born, London-based jeweller Hannah Upritchard creates work with an archaeologist's aesthetic. You could be forgiven for thinking her pieces have been unearthed in some exciting treasure hoard; with their uneven, ancient textures, mediaeval form and strange talismans. Whilst these are contemporary designs, Hannah uses ancient methods such as wax sculpting and casting and combines these with finds from the River Thames foreshore.
