Farewell to Ali

We had a small gathering recently at the Recorded Music Salon – artists, friends and family – to celebrate and farewell Ali Limb. Ali was the Co-founder of e.g.etal in 1998, with Emma Goodsir. After 11 full and rich years of creating and growing e.g.etal, Ali decided to step out of her role as director. She will be spending more time with her family and at her jeweller’s bench. And the good news is her jewellery, hot from the bench, will of course, be sold exclusively through e.g.etal!
So an amazing business partnership comes to an end. Yes, there were tears. But it was lovely to see two women who have shared such big parts of their lives so happy for each other and the possibilities ahead…
Thanks to everyone who attended to wish Ali all the best!

Diamond Lake ring by Vikki Kassoras

Vikki Kassioras’ new body of work references journeys and voyages. The roughly hewn outer surfaces of these rings hint at larger landscapes, valleys and mountain ranges. In contrast the inner surfaces are smooth and polished.

Captured in miniature, the carved surfaces are evocative of pathways and trails sliced into rock and high winding mountain passes. Diamonds are sprinkled along a would be path like pebbles or used like markers.

e.g.etal: contemporary jewellery and objects
