Designer & Goldsmith Siobhán McArdle started her journey into goldsmithing through formal training in Dublin and Kilkenny. She continues to expand her repertoire of skills through training with master goldsmiths across Europe, allowing her to push the boundaries of conventional jewellery making.
Inspired by the beauty of art, architecture, and the essence of human emotion, she explores the psyche and draws from the influence of sculpture and empty space. Recognising the intricate web of connections around us, she weaves stories into her jewellery designs.
The endless potential offered by wax carving fuels her creativity and adds another dimension to her many skills. Approaching wax carving with the precision of a skilled goldsmith, her finely crafted pieces reflect both craftsmanship and artistry.
She merges traditional goldsmithing techniques, modern methods and creative storytelling to craft a distinct, original voice
