Amy Whittingham
Glass Artist
Amy Whittingham creates cast glass inspired by the spaces between things; rope moorings connecting the land to the sea, the erosion of materials over time, rusty chain loops and weathered sea glass, jewellery that empowers process and the history of the makers marks.
Amy's Eco-friendly Jewellery combines cast glass with 100% recycled cotton rope or hand woven hemp cord as a tribute to Plymouth's Nautical heritage as one of only three rope making sites in the UK.
Each necklace or pair of earrings is individually created, modeled in wax, cast in glass and carefully finished to a high standard. The cast glass is paired with hand woven hemp cord or super soft 100% recycled cotton for an Eco-friendly alternative to precious metals and plastic. These necklaces reduce the use of fast fashion cotton that goes into landfill and satisfies the eco-warrier within. The rope is sewn and whipped by hand to ensure a secure fixing.
All jewellery is packaged with care in eco-friendly boxes and wrapped for safe shipping.
