Who is Anoush Waddington?

Anoush Waddington is a leading designer in Art jewelry. Anoush’s work can be found in a significant number of private collections around the world.

Anoush is best known for her work with polypropylene, she developed a number of techniques in 2001 that allowed her to utilise this strong, lightweight and durable material which had rarely been used for jewellery design due to a number of technical problems. Her use of this material and her unique style resulted in her winning a number of international awards.

Recent research conducted by Anoush has allowed her to develop new techniques, including a process for dyeing polypropylene, as well as other more usual plastics and the development of a process for pressure laminating acrylic to encapsulate a range of materials. Jewellery including elements using these processes is gradually being incorporated into her new collections.

Anoush grew up surrounded by artistic family and friends, an environment where music and image were the backdrop of daily chores and routine. All the excitement of rock gigs, film sets, art exhibitions, festivals and classical music coloured her childhood, inspiring her curiosity and imagination.
