Catherine Hills

Catherine Hills is an award-winning British jewellery designer maker with a shop and jewellery atelier in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent. With the help of her assistant, Rolo, an Airedale Terrier, she creates contemporary ready-to-wear jewellery inspired by nature, found objects, collectables and symbolism. She is also famed for having designed multiple pieces for the stars during the filming of the Harry Potter movies. 

"I’m endlessly inspired by nature. I’m always stopping on dog walks to pick up unusual seed pods and leaves and I’m especially drawn to unusual shapes and textures. I love to experiment with textures to add character to my work and I use positive and negative shapes to play with the light.
My grandmother gave me a silver charm bracelet when I was a young girl and each year she would add a new charm. I adored it and I still treasure it today. I understood from an early age the deep significance a special piece of jewellery can hold, and the way it can last a lifetime and beyond."
