Jewellery Now presents Elizabeth Goring and Gregory Parsons’ selection of work made (with some special exceptions) within the last three years, by some of the best and most interesting designer jewellers in the four parts of the UK. They have selected 64 highly accomplished and interesting jewellers from England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, working at a range of levels from the most experienced to those making exceptional work in the early stages of their careers. Among the most senior, they have included a number of those who broke the jewellery mould, and who passed on their skills to subsequent generations, from as early as the 1960s. Many are still creating work to the highest of standards, still surprising us with their creativity, innovation, and expertise. Without their contribution, the work in Jewellery Now would look very different. This publication accompanies the exhibition by the same name at Ruthin Craft Centre, July 5-September 21, 2025.
