Rachel Larkins is a designer maker whose practice has recently focussed on creating jewellery with a strong sense of narrative and a nod to the tradition of miniatures.

A regular exhibitor at Made London, @work gallery, London and The Artshop and Chapel, Wales and tutor at West Dean College of Arts and Conservation, Rachel was also a contributing maker to the ‘Created for Charleston’ range inspired by the Bloomsbury painters and sold through Charleston House award winning museum shop. More recently she has shown pieces at Milan jewellery week and created bespoke collections for Yorkshire Sculpture Park shop and Dazzle contemporary jewellery exhibitions.

Rachel works primarily in resin, brass and wood, often encapsulating imaginary scenes and figures which are hand modelled and painted. Based in a village close to a forest, Rachel’s influences range from the surrounding rural landscape and seasonal folklore to magical realism in literature and painting.
