is devoted to the promotion, representation, understanding and development of contemporary jewellery in the United Kingdom and abroad.
Founded as a membership association in 1997 and registered as a Limited Company in 2006, it recognises a need to foster discussion, debate and critical review and interaction amongst its members. To this end we organise conferences, lectures, seminars, workshops and an annual general meeting for our members. Our regular newsletter, findings, features reviews, information, comment, book offers and discounts and is of benefit to both our members and the wider public. We also produce a monthly e-bulletin featuring news and opportunities.
We welcome as members practising jewellers, associated designers and crafts people, educators, students, gallery owners and retailers, museum curators, critics and collectors - indeed, anyone with an interest in contemporary jewellery.

OPEN CALL! FOUR CORNERS OF CRAFT - EXHIBIT AT THE LONDON DESIGN FESTIVAL
Hello! Sarah here from Etsy UK.
Do you make beautiful contemporary craft? Apply for our Four Corners of Craft exhibition...
Four Corners of Craft is a national maker development and exhibition project supported by the Crafts Council and creative organisations in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. It will culminate in an exhibition to showcase great contemporary craft on Etsy, in partnership with Tent London and the London Design Festival on 24-27th September 2015.
Lead partners include: Crafts Council, Contemporary Applied Arts, Design Trust, Craft Scotland, Creative Scotland, Craft NI, Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Helfa Gelf. With support from: Arts Council of Wales, Ruthin Craft Centre, The Makers' Guild in Wales and many more incredible organisations around the UK.
Calling all designer-makers! We’re seeking excellent cross-disciplinary craft from all corners of the UK.
Fiona Logue, Director of Craft Scotland says ‘Etsy is a supportive and accessible route to market and their work assists our makers in developing their businesses.’ Makers will benefit from professional development support (from the Design Trust and local sources) and ultimately sell their work at the exhibition.
