The Handmade Jewellers


BRAND NEW DOCUMENTARY TV SERIES ABOUT HANDMADE JEWELLEry Makers

 
 

I am so excited to share THE HANDMADE JEWELLERS - a BRAND NEW TV documentary series that I have filmed with five talented jewellers.

In this short series premiering live on YouTube, come on a journey of discovery with me, Jessica Rose. I meet jewellers who are creating and selling their work, building their own businesses. We get a tour of their workshops and a look at the tools they love! Plus they teach me a new jewellery making skill.

I’d love you to meet The Handmade Jewellers.
