British Jeweller's Association Award



I have been selected as a finalist in the British Jeweller's Association Awards 2012! The competition is to design and manufacture a commemorative silver desk accessory for the BJA's 125th anniversary. Their emblem is a unicorn, so I have made the unicorn shape from the numbers 1 (the pen), 2 and 5. The piece is created from forged silver. At the moment the design is on display at the NEC in the Jewellery Show, Spring Fair and voting can be done there or online. For online voting please follow http://www.bja.org.uk/en/125/design-and-manufacture-of-a-commemorative-silver-desk-piece/erica-sharpe-unicorn-pen-stand.cfm Thank you!
I was so lucky to get this design entry in. It took a little longer than anticipated and I decided to work on through the night and sent it on-line that night (actually early morning!). The following day our internet connection stopped working and remained off until after the deadline!
