About

Judith Brown

Judith Brown began making jewellery in 2004. Since then she has developed her own unique way of handstitching with wire, making the intricacy of the stitch the focus of her pieces.

"Stitching has always been part of my life, my Mum was always making something so it was natural that I would start too, eventually leading to a degree in Embroidery at Manchester Metropolitan University."

 Vintage Haberdashery

With a life long love of all things textile, vintage haberdashery was the next element to be incorporated into Judith's designs.

"I had my Mum's button tin and in it a beautiful intricately carved mother of pearl button from the early 20th century, and so I thought about how I could turn this into a pendant, to be enjoyed now in the 21st century"

 Events and exhibitions

Judith's jewellery is regularly selected for contemporary craft exhibitions and fairs around the UK.

" I love meeting customers and getting feedback on my work. I get some amazing reactions when people understand how it's made and with what. The best reaction has to be from a lady at the Contemporary Textiles Fair - "It's just so wonderful I could curtsey in front of you!" - now that really made me smile!"

 A list of future events can be found on the Events page.

Workshops

Judith runs a variety of jewellery workshops, for adults and teenagers. If you are interested in booking a workshop please contact us Click here to read more about workshops.

" Running a workshop is as inspiring for me as it is to those taking part. Students always amaze me with the range of ideas they come up with from the same starting point"
