About Jeweller Fran

Based in Bristol, Frances is an accomplished jewellery designer who blends extensive design industry experience with traditional metalwork expertise.

After spending the majority of her career in the broader design world, Frances returned to one of her foundational passions: jewellery design. Operating from her Bristol studio, she crafts bespoke, handmade beads utilizing an intricate mix of silver, brass, bronze clay, and solid silver. Her practice is deeply rooted in technical knowledge gained during her formal silversmith training in 2008.

To give each creation its distinct character, Frances incorporates vibrant cold enamel and carefully selected precious stones into the finishing touches. This meticulous, hands-on process ensures that every single piece she creates is entirely unique.
