Artisan Name: Harriet Challis-Jones
Description: Trained as a jeweller, she produces a range of artwork from her rural home on Anglesey; from jewellery to mazes to portraits and landscapes.

Profile: Harriet trained at Wrexham's College of Art and Design, specialising in Jewellery. She worked for four years for Clogau Gold of Wales, in their design development team, producing mainly Celtic inspired jewellery including Welsh gold.
Her work ranges from jewellery to maize mazes of about eight acres, from portraits of people and animals to landscapes; trying to capture the atmosphere of Anglesey's seas and skies.
Harriet lives with her husband, younger daughter, a pony, a dog, a cat and a rabbit in a remote cottage on Anglesey. She grew up in an equally remote farmhouse in Berkshire, England, where she loved to draw the plants and animals around her home. With Scottish Father and Welsh Mother, she feels a strong connection to her Celtic heritage, as she continues Celtic traditions of working beauty and mystery into art and jewellery.
Anglesey attracts many artists. Its beauty and heritage provide most of my inspiration. There's a fascinating range of wildlife, open beaches and rocky bays constantly changing with the moods of the tides, as well as ancient sites dating back five thousand years and chapels and rural dwellings dating back hundreds of years to remind us of man's occupation and worshipping through the ages. Once a stronghold of the Druids against the Romans, Anglesey's magic isn't hard to feel.
I love making pieces that will be treasured and am very happy to take on commissions or make slightly different versions of the work on this site.
