Hi, I’m Emily West

I’m an artisan jeweller and silversmith based at Bendigo Pottery, where I’ve been creating and selling handcrafted jewellery for over 14 years.

My creative journey began with a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Ceramics) and Honours studies, where I developed a deep appreciation for craftsmanship, materiality and the handmade process.

I love watching people discover skills they never knew they had and experience the satisfaction of creating something beautiful with their own hands. There’s something incredibly rewarding about seeing a student leave with a ring they’ve made themselves and a newfound confidence in their creativity.

My workshops are intentionally small and relaxed, (Max 4) allowing plenty of individual guidance. Whether you’ve never picked up a jeweller’s tool before or you’re simply looking for a unique creative experience, I’ll guide you through every step of the
