ELLIS MHAIRI CAMERON
Ellis Mhairi Cameron creates sculptural jewelry, inspired by her Scottish heritage. Ellis studied for a BA in Jewelry & Silversmithing at The Glasgow School of Art, before completing an MA in Jewelry Design at Central Saint Martins. Originally from the Highlands of Scotland, Ellis grew up surrounded by inspiring seascapes and mountains; places filled with history that feel primal and beautifully raw. On her family farmland, mediaeval artefacts have been excavated from the earth. These discoveries have heavily informed her collections. Ellis uses traditional techniques, such as wax carving, casting and hand forging; combining 100% recycled 14 carat yellow gold and traceable diamonds. At the foundation of her work is a belief in the beauty of imperfection, hand craftsmanship and a desire to provide clients with jewelry that can be handed down through the generations.
