Suse Scholem graduated from Monash University in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Fine Art and Honours in Fine Art. Based in Melbourne, Suse is particularly passionate about the social potential of contemporary jewellery, whilst prioritising sustainable practice.

The use of recycled metals and found objects feature significantly in Scholem's work. Experimenting with unusual natural materials in her production work, Suse creates one-off pieces, guided in design by the organic components she fervently collects.

Her range for Lord Coconut employs alchemical processes, such as electro-forming and direct casting, combined with old worlde aesthetics and a sensitive appreciation of bodily materials. Each piece is uniquely hand made by the artist.

ARTIST STATEMENT

'Frances Rose Jewellery' is the label of New Zealand born, Melbourne based jeweller Amy Gopperth. Since launching her label in late 2009 Amy has released two ranges of jewellery, Digging for Gold and Charming.

Inspired initially by the sartorial splendour of the Old West Digging for Gold is essentially a range designed for men, but appeals to both men and women alike. With the range encompassing daggers, horse-shoes and gold bullion to pistol, pickaxes and bullets, Amy has drawn on the gun slinging, whiskey drinking, foul mouthed (but impeccably dressed!) characters of the Old West to create each piece.

Working predominantly in the lost-wax casting method, she intricately hand-crafts each item out of wax then casts them in precious metals. Amy also believes in sustainability and sources all materials and services locally.
