About Jan Fryer

I originally taught myself jewellery making as an artistic outlet, having studied art at college. It gradually grew from this, and making bits and pieces for friends, into the full time occupation it is today.

I work from home in a small riverside village in Gloucestershire, where I have lived for the last 13 years with my two daughters and two dogs. My other passions are gardening, nature, motorcycling and just making things.

I derive great pleasure both from creating my jewellery and the knowledge of the pleasure that it gives to my customers. In a world of mass-produced items it is nice to have something that is hand crafted, individual and not too perfect.
