HANNAH BOURN

Hannah graduated with a first class degree in Jewellery Design at the prestigious Central St Martins in London, where she developed her passion for exploring the human connection with the natural world, and channelling her artistic concepts into three-dimensional sculptural forms for adorning the body. She wants to create jewellery that offers diverse pieces connecting people to nature despite their surroundings: to help them find tranquility, like the feeling of being by the sea, and what we associate with our senses on touching raw, natural materials. Her intricate sculptural pieces are reminiscent of the sea, respectful of the earth, and carry the message of something both beautiful but fragile, which has the potential to re-connect the wearer to the world from which they came from. She focuses on preserving organic forms, shapes and imprints whilst exploring the organic fluidity of the shapes, and highlights their delicate beauty by using precious metals to breathe life back into their inanimate forms. Hannah’s work is lovingly handmade in her Lincolnshire studio, demonstrating quality, craftsmanship, sustainability and creating sensory artefacts to treasure both now and in the future.

Rebecca met Hannah several years ago, before she went off to study at Central St Martins and had a weird feeling there was something unique about Hannah! She told Hannah to come back when she'd finished her course and show Last Night I Dreamt her first collection. Last Night I Dreamt are proud to be leading the way and the first jewellers in the UK to launch Hannah Bourn's jewellery.
