Ruth Leslie
A graduate from the Glasgow School of Art Silversmithing & Jewellery, Ruth creates minimal, bold forms exploring purpose with a variety of metals creating contemporary jewellery and sculptural pieces in their own right.
Working in a variety of metals, including silver, gold and titanium, Ruth creates pieces that are inspired by the subtle details within fabrics and the structural forms within textile machinery, creating tactile, refined forms.
