I’m Daisy, a wilderness-inspired metalsmith and founder of DAISYV Jewellery, a small, sustainable jewellery brand based in South West England, in the UK. I design and make all of my products by hand from my home studio using recycled sterling silver.
I have always been creative and enjoyed working with my hands, which is what prompted me to become a metalsmith. I took a one-day course to learn the basics, followed by an afternoon of training with a local silversmith, and fell in love with the process. What followed has been entirely self-taught, which has its good and bad points, but I’ve mostly found it a positive and rewarding way of learning. I dedicated a couple of years to developing my skills before launching my website and first professional jewellery collection in 2016, which has since grown into a collection that I’m really proud of.
