About me

Lost in words, but highly embellished in jewellery.

Find me writing on Pret-a-Reporter about jewellery history, gemstones - and even the darker side of jewellery.
Did I research modern day haunted jewellery stories as part of my Halloween article series... Oh, yes I did.
The history of poison rings... Covered.
The facts behind mourning jewellery... Done, and dusted.

When it's not scary stuff I write about, it's highly educational articles on jewellery and its role in art, history, costume and generally anthropology.
It's important to me to use a language that is approachable, easy to understand, that translates well into social media content.
