THE ART OF CONVERSATION SEASON TWO Hosted by Álanna Hammel Delighted to be joined by the incredible Kassandra Gordon for the first episode of season two. Who is Kassandra Lauren Gordon? I am an ethical jewellery designer. I have lived in many places in the UK and settled in London over 10 years ago. I have worked in the public and voluntary sector for nearly 10 years. I have studied jewellery manufacturing and design in Hatton Gardens one of the UK’s biggest jewellery districts). I learnt the traditional techniques of making handmade jewellery, before setting up my East London studio. I studied at UAL. In addition, I write poems and stories. I design ethical jewellery with the dress codes of a range of professional and creative industries in mind; from minimalist styles for the more formal work environments to loud pieces for creatives. I am the ethical fine jeweller of choice for hard working and confident people who want pieces that they can wear seamlessly from day to night. I feel my jewellery style is conceptual organic, textured elements contrasting with geometric shapes. It is always infused with storytelling.
