Sundance Artisan Spotlight: Ruth Tomlinson
Sundance artisan Ruth Tomlinson is renowned for meticulously handcrafted, luxury fine jewelry with an ethereal, otherworldly appeal - eclectic, intricate, rare and precious. Ruth employs inventive techniques to ensure that originality prevails in each new collection.
Her newest pieces of jewelry evoke natural wonders. Her Revelry Earrings and Revelry Ring contain trios of twinkling jewels inspired by stories of forgotten underwater worlds, enchanting seascapes, abundant coral gardens and hidden nautical treasures. Crystal clear aquamarines are nestled among clusters of golden granules and sparkling white diamonds, like reflections of the summer sea gently frothing with waves catching rays of sunlight.
Each jewel is made entirely by hand in her central London studio where her small team is based. Each gemstone is individually sourced and selected for its own unique character. The collections take on a personal approach and demonstrate sensitivity to the value and history of gemstones that often contain a secret treasure or story.
“To me, working with such precious materials is a privilege. Each piece of jewelry should be unique, like each of us, and this is how I like the jewelry to make people feel," Ruth says about being a jeweler, "I hope to evoke a sense of wonder around the work; a modern British classic of the future, handcrafted and ready to be filled with its own story – throughout our lifetime and for generations to come.”
