Tomfoolery Furbelow Bouquet Art Ring Outlet

Please note, this is a one-of-a-kind ring made for our ARTring 2022 exhibition. ARTring is an annual celebration of bold design and craftmanship showcasing masterful creations from over 40 unique designers. The ARTring event is hosted in the gallery from November to January. Each ARTring comes with a dedicated Story Card featuring a sketch and quote from the designer.

Constant experimentation, playfulness and development of ideas, alongside a mindfulness of the relationship each piece has with the wearer, drives Emily’s creative process and output. The dichotomy of the precious and the organic – special stones encircled by sea-worn fragments of gold – characterises so much of her inspiration. At the heart of Emily Nixon’s work remains the sculpture and tapestry of her early fine art practice.

Emily says about her Art Ring:

“The shoreline is a constant source of inspiration. The folds, furls and textures of seaweed and stone. This ring is a bouquet of glittering sapphires caught lightly amidst natural fronds of sea worn gold, as if washed there by the tide.”
