Goldsmith, Silversmith, Jeweller. What are YOU???

[AlexandraBuckle]

Great idea. Will you make the winning design for us?

[Ominicci]

I'll make all of them if I like them !! Helps ME out anyway

[Charlotte]

Ok, I think Artisan Jeweller sounds good for business (website/cards etc) but for anyone who asks e.g. hairdresser etc I think I'll still say silversmith even though I don't make knives and forks, it just seems to be understood by the general public (i.e. people who don't read the dictionary) what I do

[Ominicci]

Yes that's what I normally say too.

[Sheltie]

Never really called myself anything. Although I have been descibed as a Viking Silversmith and Artisan is often used by others to describe me, so this is probably what I will use.

My slogan is always

Handmade Jewellery Inspired by Time

[myke]

were all inspired by time ......

[MuranoSilver]

I'm quite inspired by Majoram....
The "slogan" I use in my website is "Jewellery Created by Hand & Heart"

I am Jewellery Repairer but some have called me a jeweller/jobber/Goldsmith/jack of all trades.

I see day in and day out, the best and worst of manufactured and designed jewellery that comes through my hands. It is far harder to repair a badly designed piece than to make it from scratch. Attention is not paid to how elements of a finished piece interact and wear or fatigue other elements to make certain future failure and shorten the life of the item.

I am rather fond also of the term Silversmith although I wouldn't class myself as one yet, maybe in 3 or 4 years or so when properly experienced.

At present I am a hobbyist silversmith.

I like that term

No idea what I should call myself.. I make lampwork beads, turn them into jewellery using sterling and fine silver, make my own earwires, headpins, clasps and stuff.... dunno what I am.. jack of all trades - master of none
