A master craftswoman and Fellow of the Institute of Professional Goldsmiths, Erica Sharpe has over three decades of experience in bespoke jewellery. Based in Somerset, she combines traditional handcrafting with sustainable practices, using Fairtrade gold and responsibly sourced gemstones. Her work draws inspiration from British wildlife, heritage, and the natural world. Erica trained in the UK and India and studied granulation in Italy under Giovanni Corvaja. A qualified gemologist and diamond grader, she transforms old jewellery into meaningful new pieces, blending technical skill, creativity, and ethical values in every handcrafted design.
