About Sarah Reece
Sarah started her journey as a jeweller in her early twenties. Her love for coloured gemstones was what encouraged her down that career path all those years ago.
Sarah spent 8 years working in Middle East where she learnt lapidary - the art of cutting and shaping gemstones. Sarah has also spent a significant amount of time in Sri Lanka where she has learnt about gemstones and the ethics behind their mining processes.
These ethics differ greatly from country to country and Sarah will only source and cut stones from trusted people so that she can tell you their origins and how they came to be with her.
Sarah started her lapidary journey with the intention of cutting stones in unique shapes to incorporate them into her own work but soon realised that a lot of these stones were not seen in the UK market let alone seen in fancy shapes.
Sarah has studied at City and Islington, Sir John Cass and has also been awarded a Masters Degree in Jewellery Making from University of Creative Arts.
