As he launches his first collection, the drummer of the British rock band talks about his rugged jewellery designs
is the mesmerising result of both these years spent experimenting with technique and his patient observation of his seaside surroundings on his daily walks from home to studio. Using the evolutionary process of coastal erosion as a conceptual base, he artfully toys with jewellery’s relationship with time.
Although the designer works with silver and gold, bronze is Spurgeon’s material of choice as its composition lends itself so perfectly to the idea of finding beauty in timely imperfection. “Generally, when I make the jewellery, I present it in a clean and shiny form, and I let the person know that over time that will change,” explains the designer. “But I find that it is quite romantic that it changes over time depending on what you’re doing.
For his next collection, Spurgeon is working on setting stones within the current designs. “It’s going to be like a journey,” says the designer. “This is the start, and the next bit will be adapting the designs and adding a few new pieces.” Given his unique alchemical and sculptural approach to jewellery, Spurgeon’s journey will certainly be one to watch as he continues his ode to the beauty of life with all its imperfections.
