Sian Evans

Award winning Sian Evans is a British jewellery designer, goldsmith and lapidarist from Dorset, now residing and working in Dorset after four decades in London. Sians work is inspired by interests in archaeology, fashion, geology, nature and sustainable technologies with a deep interest in storytelling. 

Her many jewellery collections over her career have taken some very different forms, stemming from ideas, ethics and heuristics. Some fashion lead, some materials lead and some process lead. Her collections in the last decade have been explorations of process in a long term project about sustainable working practices. 

Between 1982 - 1986, Sian studied jewellery design, silversmithing and goldsmithing at the Cass University, now the Londond Metrolpolitan University and during her summer breaks worked as a volunteer archaeologist in Dorset. Sian went on to become a Senior lecturer in BA Jewellery design at Central Saint Martins, University of Arts. She has now returned to and pursues her design and creative practice.
