We're taking a short break from Jan 29 - Feb 18.
Brought together by our love of making, we’re passionate about
quality craftsmanship and preserving and promoting making by hand.
At Alison Jackson, we design and create a highly-crafted selection of fine contemporary jewellery and tableware.
By blurring the lines between art, craft, and timeless style, we intertwine our appreciation for the traditional craft of silversmithing and metal forming with minimalist elegant designs to create iconic metal pieces that are both modern and timeless.
We understand jewellery and tableware hold sentimental value. It is our hope when you wear our pieces, it brings you a smile, ignites memories while inviting you to see and feel the simple pleasures that can truly enhance your day.
Each of our pieces are different. Just like you.
They tell a unique story and are crafted to stand the test of time. However, no matter what we design or what we create, one thing remains constant: our commitment to exemplary craftsmanship.
Dan's extensive technical knowledge and expertise for small batch production processes (and a whole lot of patience) is invaluable to the smooth running of the workshop as well as development of new products.
Alison’s love of traditional Silversmithing inspires so much of our work, with her keen eye and attention to detail ensuring every piece is highly crafted to the highest standard. Her entrepreneurial spirit keeps us on our toes and her unwavering commitment to in-house production and traditional making is the cornerstone of our business.
Alison Jackson is a designer, maker and contemporary Silversmith based in Canberra Australia. Completing a Gold and Silversmithing degree at the Australian National University, Alison holds over two decades of artistic and technical metal forming expertise.
Craftsmanship and the way pieces are made has always been an influence to Alison. From the way two surfaces join together, a junction, or the way an edge has been finished, it’s all in the details of an object. It is the perfection of being imperfect and the distinctive nature of structures and objects that inspires her.
By linking the rich history of metal-working to present-day artistic practices, Alison intertwines her fine hand-crafting skills with the experimental nature of design and metal forming.
With an aesthetic best described as elegant, timeless, and minimal, Alison showcases her work through her fine jewellery, tableware, large scale installation, limited editions and exhibition work.
Alison’s work is held in both public and private collections, including a large acquisition by the Canberra Museum and Gallery. A recipient of numerous notable awards and grants such as the Australia Council for the Arts and artsACT project grants, Alison’s work has been exhibited widely within Australia and also internationally, including at Inhorgenta (Germany) and Milan Design Week (Italy).
Dan Lorrimer is a sculptor, machinist and fabricator. With a degree in Sculpture from the Australian National University, Dan has since diversified his work, significantly developing his skills across a wide range of technical areas, specialising in metal forming.
Dan’s work is driven by a deep understanding of materials, industrial processes and a keen sense of exploration through making. He works across scales in metal, from sculpture, object design through to custom prototyping and fabrication services. Dan’s thirst for learning and developing unique processes is woven through all he designs and makes, continually striving to refine and resolve making processes to be the best they can be.
Dan’s sculpture practice explores notions of movement, energy, solidity and illusion through minimalist sculptural forms, often located between the artificial and natural world. He has exhibited widely across Australia and is currently represented by Flinders Lane Gallery Melbourne.
