About


Katharine first became interested in jewellery and metalworking while studying on an Art & Design course at York College. Upon completion and inspired by what she had seen she attended a course in Silver Jewellery making for two years, taught by jeweller/enameller Rachel Gogerley, meanwhile becoming Rachel's workshop assistant where she gained extra hands-on practical experience.

In 2000 she was offered a position at The Robert Feather Gallery in York, where she was fortunate enough to be both gallery and workshop assistant. She learnt many valuable practical skills under the tutorship of Robert for seven years and exhibited her work in the gallery alongside many leading jewellers.

Over the past fourteen years she has also managed to self-teach many different techniques by researching, experimenting and perseverance.
