Anna Clifton

Anna Clifton is a jewellery designer/maker that works with eastern cultural influences in her jewelley. These influences are in forms of mehndi patterns that are used to create her jewellery.Anna uses traditional gold and silversmithing techniques working in preciousmetals, gemstones.

she uses wires that are soldered onto plate,she uses different materials so theres contrast.her work mostly includes swirls on not actuall mehndi patterns but her use of differents metals and the way she uses the metal to create contrast is what im drawing attension from.

below is some of her work from her blog and website.
