Acquired Elegance is items of jewellery, handbags and other personal adornment that brings a little bit of elegance into your daily life.

Art Deco is an influence on my handwork as I live in Napier in the sunny Hawkes Bay. Art nouveau with it's gentler curves and echoes of nature are also in the mix along with significant nods to celtic and gaelic art forms.
