Rebecca Rasmussen: Raz Maker: Jewellery: Dusty Paw Studs (medium)

Rebecca is a designer-maker who primarily works with brass and recycled silver. She
loves to combine different metals and materials, adding to the visual interest and unique
aesthetic of every piece.
“I create my pieces using a small collection of traditional tools and techniques from my
spare room at my home in Penryn, Cornwall. I take so much pleasure from the materials
and tools I use. The subtle textures that a steel bench block gives, damaged through
accidental slips of the hammer, make up the textures in a lot of my pieces. Rivets are a
simple yet incredibly intimate way of joining my pieces. Such care and detail goes into
each rivet, every one different, they tend to take on their own shapes in most cases.”
