Dazzle Invites | Olivia Taylor

Olivia Taylor is a designer and jewellery-maker based in Scotland. In 2019, after graduating from Glasgow School of Art, she created a brand of timeless, contemporary jewellery, translating her love for design and fine jewellery into a new form of statement pieces.

Inspired by stories of travel and architecture, her work reinterprets hard concrete shapes into softs plays of light, landscape and sky. Using traditional techniques, she brings geometric shapes and striking line intersections together into organic, wearable pieces. 

Vivid treatment of texture and colour contrasts with refined, linear structures; further exploring the harmony between nature and architecture in Olivia`s work. 

Each piece of jewellery created by Olivia is handmade using ethically sourced precious metals and recycled silver. She is interested in the metamorphose of materials, the transient nature of formed metal; how an old silver brooch can be transformed into a molten ingot and further reshaped into a new pair of earrings. 

Olivia Taylor is showing an exclusive range of jewellery as part of the third edition of our virtual Dazzle exhibition – Dazzle Invites.

Dazzle invites 30 contemporary jewellers, showing unique, one-off or limited edition designs, created specially for the exhibition. All pieces are available to purchase from 16 November 2022 – 8 January 2023.
