Jewellery made of beautiful stones and a special tarnish-resistant silver called Argentium.



"Folles de Pierres" - yes, I am crazy about stones, as my sister told me one day!

In the last year I have been working with three distinct techniques:

- Silversmithing using a tarnish-resistant sterling silver called Argentium, and unique semi-precious stones
- Vitreous transparent enamel on copper or silver, adding textures and colours with techniques like cloisonné, plique a jour or champlevé
- Chain maille for beautiful chains, from the Byzantine to the Viking knit, in Argentium and/or copper

I like the diversity of the pieces I design and sometimes they combine into a unique creation.

Black and white landscape photographs; framed, unframed and multi-image folios.


Photography starts as an exploration of a subject and can develop into a conversation as the subject influences the next image.  Like any conversation, you can start just about anywhere and if it becomes engaging, you learn something about the other.  The act of photographing focuses attention on the subject, excluding all else.  As I spend more time, different facets of the subject emerge, pulling me deeper into the conversation.  I become immersed and some of the true character of the subject emerges.  I find black and white images allow more interpretations without altering the nature of the subject.

Alida's pottery is functional wheel thrown and hand built with rich earth tones.

Alida's work is mostly wheel-thrown though she does hand-built pieces as well.  After she shapes the clay into the form she wants, it goes into the kiln to be bisqued.  The clay is fired at 1888 degrees fahrenheit.  Pieces are then removed, glazed and fired again at an even higher temperature to melt the glaze onto the pots.  Alida is inspired by looking out onto a field and the earthy colours of the landscape she is trying to copy onto her pottery.
