About Sharon McSwiney

Quirky animal, bird & leafy designs are hand crafted into jewellery, decorative metalwork for the walls or garden and unusual metal greetings cards by Sharon McSwiney.

Sharon has been designing & making her work successfully for over 20 years but only moved to Cornwall in 2013. She has a retail outlet & a separate studio space St Ives.

St Ives is a very special place and I feel extremely lucky to be living and working in such an inspiring environment; the beautiful coastline, lucky beach finds and artistic community are a constant source of ideas.
My shop in the centrally located Drill Hall, is a showcase for my creations. Distinctively different jewellery designs, richly coloured copper and brass wall pieces and special handmade greetings cards are displayed alongside carefully selected pieces by other makers; the majority of them unique to St Ives.
New work is always on the horizon...with such a stunning location providing constant exciting ideas. The joy of finding a special shell on one of the beaches, the varied colours of the sea and the native wildlife create endless possibilities.
