HELLO YOUNG JEWELLERY DESIGNERS & a glittering welcome to the Artifex Young Jewellery Designer Awards blog!
WE ARE Ross Fenn & Nigel Bates, art lovers & directors

contemporary British Arts & Crafts. We
are passionate about British, handmade jewellery and have been supporting
British designers for over 20 years. This year, in a bid to keep the industry
exciting and to help young jewellery designers gain exposure, we want to
take our support for the British jewellery industry further with the Artifex

gallery following the awards ceremony, where customers will be able to BUY YOUR WINNING
