Lesley Strickland
Lesley Strickland is a British jeweller specialising in the use of cellulose acetate combined with sterling silver. Cellulose acetate is an unusual plastic as it is made from purified cellulose. This is sourced from wood or cotton rather than petroleum.
Although the sheets of cellulose acetate are made using some very modern technology, craftsmanship is still the key to making the best use of such an elegant material. Each piece of Lesley Strickland’s jewellery is hand formed and very carefully finished. The finished pieces are sleek and elegant, whilst the material allows for a wide range of patterns and colours.
