Shalini Austin
My work is mostly inspired by nature and things I see around me. And of course by my customers who encourage me to learn more, craft more and often challenge me (in a good way!) to create new designs.
I started working with wire & semi precious stones in 2008, making jewellery to sell at local craft shows and via my website. As I progressed on my creative journey I learnt to appreciate sheet metal, especially copper. So it is only natural that my work is now taking a new path – metalsmithing, crafting a decorative and functional range of copper jewellery, sculptures and home-ware.
Originally from India I now live & work in Stamford. All my designs are created individually in my home studio in Stamford. Most of my designs are truly one-off but some things can be made to order.
