Designer Spotlight: Kirstin Stride
Kirstin Stride is a trained silversmith and blacksmith who discovered shrink plastic as a
way to continue designing in her tiny apartment. She uses the creative material to
create unique jewellery by hand, drawing and colouring each piece, and then finishing
them with a thick glossy glaze for a sturdy ceramic/enamel-like look and feel. In 2014,
Stride was asked by the Royal Academy of Arts to be included in its Rated collection,
and two of her pieces are now in its bestsellers section.
