About Sugar
Fine Jewellery

Hello, my name is Jessica. I am a traditionally trained goldsmith and artist who uses time tested hand fabrication techniques to create fine jewellery. Each piece of jewellery begins with noble metals. Gold, Platinum, Silver.

Shaped by fire, pressure, patience, and time, an object is brought into existence. My happy place is performing the magical alchemy of transformation, something tangible and beautiful, created using raw materials brought together across the earth. The final piece becomes more than its sum. Formed from the earth from which you also came, it becomes a part of your story and journey.

Custom Jewellery

Custom Jewellery

I live and breathe jewellery and romance. Where the two meet, I translate moments of love and life into beautiful adornment. My combined study of fine arts includes Oil Painting, Intaglio Etching, Object Design, Sculpture, and Traditional Goldsmithing. This variation allows me to draw from 20+ years of expressive work to craft unique and beautiful art jewellery. Every piece is crafted by me using traditional techniques and precious materials from the natural earth. Commissioning a bespoke piece of handmade fine jewellery is one of the oldest expressions of appreciation and devotion.

Handmade Chains image

Handmade Chains

Each link formed and soldered by hand no machine soldering, no casting. Handmade chains are one of the most labour intensive and rewarding makes. Every chain I make is entirely unique and built to last a lifetime.

Gemstone Intaglio image

Gemstone Intaglio

An ancient art of engraving imagery directly into the surface of a gemstone. One of the earliest markers of authenticity, gemstone intaglio take many hours of intricate and precise carving and refinement before completion. Animals, botanicals, symbols of love... in traditional intaglio or carved in reverse so to read as floating inside a natural stone. I hand carve original intaglio work that bridges fine art and jewellery in the oldest tradition.

Chasing & Repoussé image

Chasing & Repoussé

A sculptural metalworking technique where sheet metal is worked from both sides using hammers and punches to create dimensional relief. Beautifully expressive and physically demanding, the results are entirely one of a kind and allow delicate yet bold motifs.

Storytelling through object creation.
