Nell swooped in and spent a lengthy time with us, selected twenty seven © Bh pieces for her upcoming “jewels to die for” show. Relaxed time where Barbara had the opportunity to cover her personal history, her work strategies and the ‘JewellertotheLost’ brand – Nell also was given space to illuminate us on her “Vision” and plans and fresh new twin location lifestyle.

So get out your black fascinators and join us in Sydney to honour the dearly departed, Wednesday March 25, 2020.

Another couple who found their ring in style. Bailey commissioned this engagement ring for Maddie – like all young folk he had a specific design, he used a family gem and the studio made the ring to last forever – none of this skimping on metal, taking shortcuts . . . this pic was sent with a terrific ‘thank-you’.

 

Barbara hand delivered these to our (private) Sydney serial offender on Tuesday Thursday, Oct 24 2019

The design was originally initiated for a favourite Brisbane client who ventured in a different direction. Barbara kept the elements live, thinking to make them for herself . . . our (private) gem-loving Sydney client spied these and pounced, end of story.

Text supplied by Jacqueline Armitstead: Internationally recognised designer and jeweller Barbara Heath has fashioned a large-scale building jewel. Net features repeat interlocking stainless steel links that reference the themes of networking and teamwork that operate in both nature and culture.

Net also draws upon the rich history of the site as a place of human, cultural and scientific endeavour and is evocative of fish traps and nets used by Aboriginal groups who came to hunt the abundant wildlife in the Brisbane river and its swamps and creeks.

Net was originally commissioned in 1998 for the Neville Bonner Building, Brisbane by the Department of Public Works, architects – Donovan Hill. In 2017, Net was relocated to 1 William Street, Brisbane with the assistance of building owners Cbus Property. Net forms part of the cultural heritage collection owned and managed by the Queensland Government. Fabrication and both installations were effected by G&B Stainless and engineered by Bligh Tanner, Brisbane.

Remember the wonderful multiples created by Stuart Devlin? Friday, Jul 19 2019

These three were purchased at auction by our client who requested we repair and clean them. It became obvious to us that the 1960s packaging (where they had sat all these years) was toxic and had enabled the corrosion and the patina to decay. Each object was dismantled, cleaned by chemical, washed multiple times all by  hand and reassembled. His wikipedia link.
