Lot 6: 'S T U D' by Hannah Martin
The stud’s pointed edge has time and again offered tactile dramatisation to my vivid sculptural forms in jewellery. As it has become my signature, it seemed fitting to create an iconically elegant shape, barbaric in its beauty, offering a protective new take on such a well recognised form.
