Bea JARENO

Bea graduated with Distinction in Jewellery Design Crafts from Kensington and Chelsea College in 2004, London (UK).  She moved onto Sir John Cass centre Faculty of Arts, Media and Design, Metropolitan University, to study hand engraving and stone setting till 2006. Since, Bea has been selected to participate in many exhibitions and invited to showcase her work in Galleries around the UK and Abroad.

 The studies of porcupine quills together with the book ‘Africa Adorned’ by Angela Fisher are the main sources of inspiration in Bea Jareno’s work.The different qualities of line, shape and size in harmony with the use of precious metals creates rhythm, fluidity and  movement interest within the pieces, giving a simplicity  and minimalist sense throughout  the body of work.

 Her new work, the Indian Summer collection, is inspired by her travels in India. The collection compromises an entire one of a kind pieces; bracelets, rings and earrings focus in the mix of colours, cuts and settings reflecting a land of peace, sun and where everything is possible. All the different colours comes together to create a balance exploring and emphasising contrast within the metal and the stones combined with a satin finished,  a real feast of colour and Design at the highest level of craftsmanship.
