Jeweller Of The Month

June - Jenni Douglas

Jenni Douglas is a printmaker and illustrator from Edinburgh, Scotland. Jenni started printmaking from her small home studio in 2011 and now supplies a wide variety of galleries and shops in the UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and the US. Her mission has always been simple: be passionate about the creative process, use good quality, sustainable materials, buy locally and don’t worry about making mistakes. Having long had a passion for print, particularly the layered, beautifully textured block printed designs from the 1950s and 60s, Jenni experimented with different types of printmaking, enjoying the straightforwardness and honesty of lino printing, which she combined with drawing and mark making. Her jewellery features her distinctive block prints in a wide range of colourful designs made from lightweight, hypo-allergenic aluminium and sterling silver.
