About

My name is Aggie.
I am a goldsmith and ceramic maker.                                I was fascinated by jewellery and the art of jewellery making from a very young age but had never thought of taking it up professionally. Until I moved some years ago to the most beautiful part of the world, West Coast of Ireland, and here, in Killarney l decided to follow my creative nature and open my small workshop together with my husband, Raf.  And this is how the journey in creating began… I have learned silver making, enamelling and ceramics in many places around the world- in Dublin, Poland, London, Georgia, Armenia and Crawford College of Art.
Now I am living and working in the most beautiful place in Ireland and loving it more and more every day..
Killarney, being an integral part of the world famous Wild Atlantic Way is one of those places where the arts are vibrant and appreciated, and for me, has inspired a re-connection with my artistic side.

My favourite medium is sterling silver, enamel and ceramic clay. We try to combine all of this techniques together creating unique pieces of jewellery and every item made in our studio is entirely handmade and crafted with love and attention to details and quality.

“I hope that people wearing my jewellery will experience the same happiness as I do while creating it.”

CLOISONNÉ

My favourite technique that I mostly work with and enjoy is an ancient Georgian technique called Minankari, also best known as Cloisonné. It is an art process in which the tiny grains of glass are applied and fired in raised cells on metal-pure silver or gold, background.
This firing process is repeated several times in a special kiln in the temperature as high as almost 800 degrees Celsius.
It is a laborious technique that cannot be mechanised. It requires a lot of work, time and patience, so the ready piece of jewellery becomes an art object.
Cloisonné with all its possibilities is so far my favourite medium where l can combine colour, metal and wonderful world of Celtic symbols like knots, swirls, spirals.
Possibilities are endless!

I also run a variety of jewellery making and enamelling workshops. Please check the website for more details or email us if you are interested in taking classes with me, or having me teach at your location.
