The Association for Contemporary Jewellery

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.

No let-up in arts A level decline


Early figures suggest that the trend away from studying some arts subjects at GCSE may be bottoming out, but A level entries continue to fall away across all disciplines.

Historically jewellery has been developed and studied in a terrestrial context. Over the course of several years artist and jeweller Ezra Satok-Wolman has been working on a project that envisions what adornment in space might be like and how jewellery can be produced in space using a system that is easily reproducible and requires only a basic set of tools and reusable elements. The system is based on Satok-Wolman’s design for a universal nodal connector and customized stainless steel springs that facilitate the mechanical connection of the parts. The system can be used to produce an unlimited number of flexible, geometric and abstract forms that have structural memory, and can adapt to the body and its movements.
