Swedish Louise is Rootbeet. She travels the world buying and selling arts and crafts such as fabric, wooden jewellery and various other odds and ends.
Twisted Ebony rings with various silver highlights.
Having found wooden accessories in Maputo, she collaborated with the craftsmen so as to develop her own designs in wood using their skills. She has created a range of earrings, rings and bangles which she sells globally. Each year I do a collection of silver detail for her - she supplies the wooden parts and I add the silver highlights.
Ebony Earrings set with gemstones.
I Love wood and the freedom that she allows me in design, but it is tedious work. Mass production does not appeal to me and she wishes I would take on even more work than I will allow. Strict about deadlines and quality. Swedish perfection !!
