Artist Information; Liz Davies - Jeweller

Liz was born in Rochdale, and still lives and works as a contemporary jeweller in the area.

After a successful course studying fashion at Rochdale college Liz earned the privilege to gain experience in the fashion industry working at the Zandra Rhodes design house in London.

This had a great impact on Liz and she went onto study International Textile and Surface Design at Middlesborough College of Art, specialising in fashion design. Her final show was inspired by textile artists and historic fashion fashion trends, taking ideas from Victorian bodices and combining them with modern materials and styles she produced elaborate black and gold neck pieces.

After her graduation in 1999 these flamboyant fashion statements evolved into chokers and bracelets which proved to be very popular - and remain so to this day.

These chokers were the beginning of Liz's flourishing jewellery career. Today she is drawn to the vibrant colours of natural stones, and loves to incorporate crystals, pearls, and semi-precious jewels. She is a versatile artist who is always experimenting and welcomes commissions.
