Platinum Design Winners AnnouncedThe identities of the eight winners of the Design Innovation Award have been unveiled by the Platinum Collection magazine.
Launched by the magazine, the scheme seeks to reward and uncover emerging designers who can drive forward the jewellery market, through innovative design ideas and approaches.
This year's awards – the scheme's third year in existence – were supported and sponsored by Lonmin, the world's third largest platinum producer.
Design entries submitted included an expandable platinum brooch and a ring engineered to look like satellites orbiting in space.
One of the eight winners, Janet Weller, commented: "As a freelance designer, it is an amazing confidence booster to have a winning entry, and to be able to exhibit the finished piece at such a high profile event as the International Jewellery London."
Her winning design, along with fellow winners, Claire Woolley, Jacks Turner, Jig Pattni, Jo Bromley, Naomi Newton, Shona Marsh and Tamara Gomez, will now be featured as part of a dedicated double page spread in the eighth edition of the Platinum Collection magazine.
