I make statement, one-off pieces of wearable art jewellery from waste plastic. I collect, reuse and upcycle beach plastic from the beaches where I live on the Pembrokeshire coast. I cut, shape and form it by hand and combine with industrial waste plastic, recycled silver and resins (into which I recycle my own waste plastic dust.) I aim to keep my carbon footprint low, using mostly reclaimed materials and hand tools. I aim to throw very little away. I imbue these soulless materials with a natural, weather-worn character by working their surfaces till their colours soften and they feel natural in the hand. I use shapes and textures inspired by the sea and my walks on the foreshore at the bottom of my garden. “Celebrating women who are playful, expressive and thoughtful; my jewellery is fuelled by a delight in the natural world and a desire to protect it.”

Commissions: I love working with clients to make a special piece. Just give me some starting points, it could be your favourite shapes and colours, a dress you love or even a painting! I’ll come up with some ideas and mock up some options and we’ll take it from there. I like the collaborative process and find it stimulating to pay close attention to all the details and getting it right so it expresses both our personalities. It’s a lovely experience for both sides and an ideal gift for yourself or someone special. Do send me an email and lets start a conversation about what you might like and we can talk about prices too. “Bronwen’s designs are abstract but reflect the natural world - this is what I love about her jewellery” Eileen Powell
We’re delighted to feature the work of Bronwen Gwillim on Blue Patch. Her circular design produces wearable and collectable jewellery that merges with art and has a positive footprint, helping to protect our coastal ecology.
