Ruth has been designing and making playful, sculptural jewellery since 2015. Her eponymous jewellery collection is made by hand using recycled silver and gold and is inspired by both the subtle details within fabrics as well as the intricate constructions within textile machinery. Ruth finely twists wire using an old-fashioned hand drill which is then cut and wrapped around frames to create tactile, refined forms - like dangling architecture.
Ruth Leslie was born in Edinburgh in 1993. She recevied a BA (Hons) degree from The Glasgow School of Art Silversmithing & Jewellery department in 2015. After graduating, she moved back to her home city Edinburgh where she now has a sunny studio on The Shore in Leith.
