Jo Hayes Ward
Jo Hayes Ward's creative journey started with a fascination with sculpture, as she was drawn to experimenting with shapes, structures and 3D patterns. Jo describes her work as 'metamorphic' for many reasons. Each piece of jewellery is formed of multiple elements and textures that combine to create extremely original compositions that hint at geological form, and have an architectural but also organic feel. 'Metamorphic' also means that Jo's jewellery is transformative; rings work particularly well as stacks, necklaces layer delicately, and earrings can be worn in various ways. JHW jewellery is endlessly versatile; worn and adored both night and day.
Harnessing the way light is reflected off delicate golden blocks and their facets is the magic of Jo’s designs; pieces come alive when worn, shimmering like dappled light on water. Gems work beautifully alongside glistening cubes and patterned formations. Scattered diamonds sparkle in many pieces, enhancing the metal structures with their cuts and colours, while unique precious gems and rose cut diamonds render her one-of-a-kind pieces utterly spellbinding.
