JULIA FOGGIN (MIST JEWELLERY)

“Silversmithing is in my blood! Like my blacksmith ancestors, I love manipulating and forming metal. I beat silver into delicate, organic shapes adding freshwater pearls with irregular characteristics and colourful gemstones to create unique, highly feminine jewellery.”

Julia Foggin hails from Lancashire but is now based in Shropshire where she works from her beautiful workshop and gallery called MIST in the Ironbridge Gorge. At the Maws Craft Centre, she designs and makes her distinctive hammered silver jewellery, from tiny ear studs to intricately constructed statement pieces.

As well as producing readymade pieces, she welcomes commissions, so you can choose your own colours and styles. She also offers a wedding service making bespoke jewellery for brides and bridesmaids.

Julia has a degree in Graphic design. After working in the industry for several years the ‘smithing’ in her blood took root when she tried some silversmithing courses. Once trained she decided to make it her career and continues exploring and expanding her repertoire.

Sally is a photographer and artist living in Bridgnorth.


She took up photography to capture the beauty she saw whilst rambling in the countryside.


Largely self taught her photography is instinctive and intuitive rather than technical. Rather than going out looking for a specific shot she tends to shoot what she finds on her travels. Her subject might be a blade of grass, tree bark or sunrise, anything that strikes her as beautiful and stirs her emotions.

“Capture the essence of British woodlands”
Flowers handcrafts affordable collections of minimal wooden jewellery, home décor and timeless statement pieces, that capture the essence of British woodlands. Sustainability is at the heart of all Danielle’s designs, inspired by mid-century modern design, clean lines and geometric forms, with the aim of showcasing raw materials through the traditional craft of woodturning. Each handcrafted element juxtaposes the unique grains of British hardwoods with the refined forms of 925 sterling silver, leather and brass, to create a harmonious balance between material qualities and their aesthetic values. Flowers sources native hardwoods directly from managed woodlands in Shropshire, milling, processing, and forming the timber in house.
Danielle graduated from Cardiff School of Art and Design, BA (Hons) Artist, Designer, Maker in 2016, and since established her contemporary woodturning business from the rural surrounds of Ludlow, Shropshire. Member of the register of Professional Turners and Yeoman to The Worshipful Company of Turners.

DELNY FITRZYK

| bridgnorthopenhouse

I take inspiration from the world around me—landscapes, skies, wildflowers, and trees often shape my work. Sometimes, it’s the vast scenery that draws me in; other times, it’s the finer details, like a weathered shell on the beach or the ornate carvings of a doorway. In recent years, my focus has shifted closer to home, with the Shropshire countryside and my wild garden providing endless creative possibilities.
I love developing sketches and doodles into larger pieces, working with techniques such as printing, collage, batik, drawing, painting, and free machine embroidery. My process begins with fluid and unpredictable materials like inks and watercolours, which I then refine by adding layers of texture and detail with a variety of media. Free machine embroidery often serves as the final element, particularly on paper, where I use it as a form of mark-making.
