ERIKA: ALICE GWYNETH

JEWELLERY FEATURES CLASSIC AND

TIMELESS JEWELLERY THAT CAN BE WORN

BY ANYONE. WHAT ARE YOUR CREATIVE

PROCESSES BEHIND DESIGNING EACH PIECE?

ALICE: When designing pieces I take inspiration

from what is inspiring me at that moment. When

I made the mythology collection I was intrigued

about the myths and legends that embody our

cultures...when I designed the Organic Elements

collection I was inspired by the elements of our

planet... Inspiration can come from a variety of

things such as people, places, art & textures...

once I’ve found my inspiration I draw, design,

create & tweak samples until I’m happy with the

finished product!

ERIKA: ALICE GWYNETH JEWELLERY IS A

NEW, UPCOMING INDEPENDENT BRAND.

WHAT ARE YOUR BRAND GOALS AND

ASPIRATIONS FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS?

ALICE: A big goal of mine is to expand Alice

Gwyneth into a sustainable ‘full package’ brand.

I’ve always been interested in fashion and home

design and would love to incorporate my ethics

and ethos into such creative elements. This

would also integrate my aspiration of having an

AG flagship store. A store that would sell entirely

sustainable products designed and made by

myself... the dream!

ERIKA: SHOPPING AND SUPPORTING LOCAL

BUSINESSES ARE IMPORTANT NOW MORE

THAN EVER DURING THE COVID-19 SITUATION.

HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC AFFECTED ALICE

GWYNETH JEWELLERY?

ALICE: The decision to stay open and to trade

was a difficult one. I obviously wanted to ensure

the safety of my customers by reducing the risk

of spreading Covid 19 so was considering closing

AGJ. I also faced the difficult situation of suppliers

closing and delays with Royal Mail.

After much consideration, I decided to stay

open but limit the pieces I could make by taking

the necessary safety precautions suggested by

the government. Like most businesses, I’ve

temporarily had to adapt and change the way I run

my business. Luckily, I have the most supportive

and loyal customers who continued to purchase

from me during this testing time!

ERIKA: WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR

THE ALICE GWYNETH JEWELLERY BRAND?

ALICE: Hopefully the future holds good things!

AGJ is now beginning to be stocked in stores

across the UK which is exciting to see. I’ve also

been working on new collections that should

be releasing in the Autumn and there are a few

interesting collaborations in the pipelines; so at

the moment the future looks bright and promising!
