Hello, my name is Olive! I’m a jeweller based in East London, specialising in wax carving and casting. I first used lost-wax casting techniques to make a sculpture when I was at art school, and I was captured from that moment. After graduating in 2020, I began to explore wax-carved jewellery making, learning mostly through YouTube tutorials and trial and error, before I bit the bullet and signed up for a beginner’s jewellery making course. Today, my work combines various wax and metalworking techniques along with stonesetting. Spiralling, knotted, and twisted forms feature often in my work, as do found objects like pebbles and seaglass, in combination with precious stones.
