Tamara Gomez Jewellery

General information

I design and make jewellery using fine and sterling silver, various carats of gold, rough diamonds and gem stones.

Intuitive and serendipitous by design my jewellery is earthy and organic in style which is derived from my interest in adapting traditional goldsmithing techniques and processes such as forging, forming and texturing metal with a variety of tools.

I enjoy the mark making process that such techniques involve and the visual results they create.

I have always used gemstones in my work and my choice of stone is often based on cut, colour, shape and form as opposed to monetary or commercial value.

I often use assorted cuts of diamonds in my work including rough diamonds for each stones inherent visual qualities and rose cut diamonds for their subtle glow.
I enjoy working in precious metals due to the range of alloys available, the colour’s they imbue and the physical properties each alloy has
