Justin's silver and gold contemporary jewellery is deeply influenced by the surrounding countryside and ocean. He is especially fascinated by the way they engage with each other, constantly conflicting, whilst paradoxically achieving a harmonic balance. The gold and silver jewellery that Justin produces uses the contrast between the textures of the land and sea. He does this by combining wood with gold and silver to give the piece an elemental feel, or by texturing the metal in a way that creates a feeling of organic movement. This culminates in contemporary gold and silver pieces of jewellery, which change with wear in much the same way as the sea shapes the coastlines of Cornwall.

Contemporary Silver Jewellery

Justin Duance designs and creates his contemporary jewellery using a stylishly understated combination of silver or gold and non-precious materials, such as wood and resin. Justin Duance is a young designer, based in Newlyn, in Cornwall. He hand crafts each silver or gold piece from his workshop in Newlyn, overlooking the sea. The wood in Justin's gold and silver contemporary jewellery will change over time and with wear making each piece entirely unique and personal to the wearer. Each contemporary piece, whether made with gold or silver, is hallmarked and has Justin Duance's makers mark, so you can be sure of the content, purity and quality of the gold and silver involved.
