Q. Where do you source your materials?

A. When buying materials for jewellery-making, I aim to support local Irish businesses where possible. I buy polymer clay from local craft stores and jewellery findings from a Dublin-based supplier.

Q. Is polymer clay sustainable?

A. Unfortunately not! Polymer clay is made from PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). PVC is one of the world’s most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer.

Although polymer clay may not be sustainable, we are mindful when creating our jewellery pieces and aim to produce minimal waste. Our jewellery is durable, lightweight and long-lasting.
