2023 Craft ACT Corporate Catalogue

It is the response of the wearer that makes Blanche Tilden's
jewellery succeed.
The connection that can develop once a necklace becomes
precious to someone else, once it becomes part of their persona,
their life, their experience, is the aspect of Blanche's practice that
she values most.
Blanche has exhibited contemporary jewellery nationally and
internationally since 1990. An innovative approach to materials, in
particular, glass, has developed over this time. A desire to
understand how things work, the relationship between the machine
made and the handmade, between the built environment and the
individual, continually inspires Blanche's work.
Blanche Tilden has created and exhibited contemporary jewellery,
glass and design since 1990. She is a celebrated master of her
trade, highly recognised and respected, nationally and
internationally.
‘During 25 years of practice in the fields, I have developed a unique
visual and material vocabulary through an innovative use of glass
and metals, creating jewellery and objects that reference
mechanical technology, industrial modernity and architecture.’
