- Welcome to the 2nd episode of our brand new documentary TV series - The Handmade Jewellers!
In this short series premiering here each week, live on TH-cam, come on a journey of discovery with me, Jessica Rose, in which I meet five talented jewellers who are creating and selling their work, building their own businesses.
We get a tour of their workshops and a look at the tools they love! Plus they teach me a new jewellery making skill.
In Episode 2, I talk to jeweller Susannah King about her journey in to jewellery making. Susannah is a fourth generation jeweller. She loves working with gemstones and describes her jewellery as wearable pieces of art.
You can find Susannah on Instagram here / susannahkinglondon

I’m really excited for the next episode, watching Anna’s story gave me a lot of reassurance about what I was doing. I was told by my doctor a while ago that I can’t be In employment anymore due to health issues, so everything I’ve saved has gone into me working on my jewellery, which the pressure of can kind of stifle your creativity (as you can imagine) but watching Anna’s story really helped me refocus on that so I’m very grateful that you’ve done this series 🙏✨
Aw so glad to hear that you enjoyed it and found it inspirational. See you for episode 2 on Thursday! x
It sounds like you need a daddy to make it smooth and easy. That seems to be what works. Sorry about your health, art is a very lovely way to heal a bit.
I love Susannah's jewellery but what stands out to me in this episode is her mindset. I love her attitude and it's all about giving everything a try, being true to yourself and not limiting yourself. Inspirational
Loved the first episode. It was inspiring. I look forward to seeing the rest.😊
Aw thanks for watching Patricia and so glad you enjoyed the first episode. I can't wait for you to see this next one too! Jess x
Susannah is such a talent! And I love that jewellery making is so rooted in her DNA for 3 generations!
She was destined! x
I love that she’s Inspired by the stones first, the natural beauty of the stones leading the way for the design itself ❤
Yes absolutely. She has a real eye for stunning stones! x
I love that she is inspired by the stones… I am too… I love finding new stones and get excited to find where Im going to work them in next.
Really interesting to hear from someone whose family has been in the business for a long time. Different journey than most.
It is isn't it? So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
I love Susannah's colourful work, and the inspirational message to not limit yourself, but try things - even if it has to be in a different way - and practice until you get it right.
It's so stunning isn't it? So glad you enjoyed the show see you on Thursday hopefully! x
That Was Fantastic! I loved that Susanna and her dad both said its super important to Practice, Practice, practice and NOT to be afraid to delve into new techniques. I so admire Susanna’s work and learned a new idea as to where to incorporate the grain setting. Thank you.
You are so welcome! x
Seeing the talent with Jess' wonderful interviewing technique is a recipe for a terrific show. I hope it continues. I was curious though, if anyone else noticed how the table of the gemstone was tilted (time 33:10) I'd be nervous about setting stones with gravers, called scorpers here. I used scorpers for engraving, so it's interesting to see them being used for something else. That's what tools are for, experimentation.
So glad you enjoyed the show x
That stone setting looks really tricky. You done great Jess! Think I'll wait a while before I try doing that myself. X
Thank you! Yes - Susannah makes it look so easy! So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Hello Jess, a great idea and professional. Anna was good at giving her story especially when she explained that some tasks of being a jewellery maker cannot be done alone and needs the help of friends (artists to create branding and outsourcing for polishers). Looking forward to the rest of the series.
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Anna was great wasn't she. x
😀Great Work & Tradition is Keep Going )),
Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed the episode, lovely to see generations of jewellers isn't it! x
It’s so incredibly inspiring, I have wax and tools on the way!! Thanks! ❤

Great advice about practice and finding alternative ways to do things differently that better suit you, or trying different techniques altogether.

Watching this episode is like watching a thriller movie. I felt butterflies in my stomach when she set the stones. I loved how Susanna made the stone setting looked so simple.

Great episode. I particularly love her mindset, it is so inspiring. The stone setting work is also AMAZING - I am in awe. Thanks JA for bringing this to us.
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
I'm inspired by Susannah and how she talked about making jewellery that you love and would buy yourself. It's always tempting to try current trends in jewellery. This really motivated me to want to get back to making jewellery that I love, even if its not for everyone. I love that she talked about being patient and waiting for your ideal customers to find you. I'm really enjoying these episodes and seeing others studios.
Exactly - stick to what you love - its what sets you apart! x
I have loved this episode.. seeing the workshop and how the business started!
And of course how Suzanna works with wax and lots of gorgeous gemstones! She is so inspiring and I would love to be able to work with this medium.
Thanks for sharing the episode ❤
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Another great episode. Love suzzanah’s style. Practice practice practice! So true 🤩
Practice practice absolutely! x
Love hearing about Susannah’s journey. 😍 i really want to work with wax and gemstones so this episode is really inspiring! I love hearing about how Susannah progressed from working in gold looking pieces and then went onto working with solid gold and how her business runs. I would love to work with gold so it’s great to hear ways of making it possible 💛
So glad you enjoyed the episode and find it inspiring. Hope to see you next week! x
I love the way Susannah talks about keeping the gemstones on show to get inspiration for collections. I tend to squirrel things away and forget that I have them! I have major gemstone envy! ❤
We have gemstone envy too! x
Such a lovely episode, following Susannah she often mentions her Dads influence, so it’s lovely we got to meet him. What’s even better is their mutual respect for each others skills.
So glad you enjoyed it x
This is such a good series! Adore seeing these awesome artists’ workshops and getting a peek into their creative processes ✨
It really is great to see behind the scenes isn't it! Glad you enjoyed it x
We’ve been following Susannah’s work for a while now so it’s really great to see her on the show, thanks to everyone involved in producing the episode. Would love to see some of her father’s work to compare styles.
So glad you enjoyed the show! Hope you can join us for the next premiere x
Another very interesting episode. Really enjoying this mini series. Looking forward to seeing the next one. So far their lovely personalities have impressed me as much as their immense talent.

The Gemstones Box ❤
Yes!!! So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Love how her trust in her abilities means she just cracks on and loves what she does. The close ups are fabulous and make it more daunting for those of us who are not where she is yet. Very educational too. So much you can only learn from an experienced enthusiast. ❤️
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Love how she keeps her gemstone out to inspire. I do that with my yarn for the same reason but never thought to do it with gems! brilliant!! And I think the fact she prioritizes things she likes or excites her to make is really resonate right now with me bc i’m just starting this journey!
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Great episode and love how Susannah just calmly gets on with her jewellery and sticks to her love of colours and designs and her advice to be patient and believe that sales and customers will come.
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
Love to hear her history of jewellery repair. My best mentors have come with this background.
Such good experience isn't it x
I love the way that Susannah is whole heartedly very honest in explaining her journey with her jewellery business. She explains every detail in a clear and concise way including how she succeeded with increasing her social media following by being different. This is what I have enjoyed about this episode along with the way that Susannah explains the stone setting process in a clear and precise way.
So glad you enjoyed the episode. Hope to see you next week! x
