      Eleanor Symms

      I design and make sustainable contemporary jewellery, creating unique pieces of jewellery and small editions from found and reclaimed materials. These are often reclaimed and repurposed plastics, which are usually combined with recycled silver. ‘Stuff’ and the properties and potential of different materials fascinate me. My work is a response to materials which have had a former life and I aim to make work which is wearable, original and beautiful and which questions ideas of ‘preciousness’.

      Eleanor graduated from Edinburgh College of Art with Distinction in 2012. She is a professional member of Visual Arts Scotland and Applied Arts Scotland, a member of the Association for Contemporary Jewellery, the Crafts Council and Craft Scotland Directories of Makers and the Green Arts Initiative. Her work is held in several public collections in the UK and Europe and she has exhibited in the UK and internationally.
