Genuine Jersey Feature

Victoria Liddell was inspired to design and make her own silver jewellery after travelling across the world. Now back in Jersey, where she was born, Victoria is turning her hobby into a successfulsmallbusiness.

My name is Victoria. I make fine silver pendents inspired by nature and love to use freshwater pearls and natural gemstones in my designs. All my jewellery is designed and handmade by me. I am also a full time mum to a 2 year old.

I went travelling with my husband in 2010 and was inspired by beautiful handmade jewellery in New Zealand, which made me want to learn jewellery making. Once back in the UK I took an intensive jewellery making course at The London Jewellery School to learn the basics. I continue to learn new skills all the time and have taught myself how to solder.

Early last year I posted some pictures of my jewellery on Facebook and got a lot of interest, so I started to do Craft Markets every week and my confidence grew from there. I decided that I wanted to turn my hobby into my dream job and start my own small business.
