Jane Dominese

Name:  Jane Dominese

County: Stourbridge, WestMidlands

Specialises In:        I was born and grew up in Rome, but came to the UK (the Northeast) at least once a year to visit the English side of my family. In Rome, I trained as a jewellery designer at the famous Istituto Europeo di Design and opened my own design studio working with jewellery manufacturers in Italy, Brazil, Taiwan and China.   ​ I moved to the UK 26 years ago to work as a designer for a manufacturer that supplied well-known high-street names. I eventually decided that I wanted to learn some additional manufacturing technical skills and that the place for me to do so would be Australia!  Needless to say I loved every minute of my one-year stay and the experiences still influence a lot of my work. On returning to the UK, I attended the famous Birmingham School of Jewellery  before opening my own Handmade Jewellery workshop based in the Black County, in the West Midlands.  ​My work has simple, clean lines, using primarily silver and fresh water pearls but also semi-precious stones and enamel.  ​ I only make limited edition pieces or small production ranges.  My favoured techniques are: etching, patination, wax carving, die forming, forging and fabrication but I also use computer aided design together with milling for some bespoke pieces.  ​ All my jewellery is hallmarked in accordance with current legislation: with a fineness mark, Birmingham Assay Office's anchor mark and JD, my maker's mark.
