About me
I am Kirsty Bolam, the artist behind Kirsty Bolam Jewellery. I am a silversmith with over 20 years of experience designing and making silver, gold and stone set jewellery. I was brought up in the Outer Hebrides and it was there where I learnt my trade. Although I have lived in Northumberland for 25 years, the inspiration from Hebridean life, the wild ocean and endless walks in its pebbled beaches has followed me and continues influence my designs today.
My workshop and Studio is in the beautiful setting of Kirkharle Courtyard, just north of Ponteland.
