Rachel MCK


Rachel McKnight studied at The University of Ulster in Belfast.  Having graduated in 2003, Rachel produces necklaces, bangles, earrings and rings to form quirky creations in plastics and rubber.  The excitement of sourcing new materials and the experimentation with them inspires her to produce original and innovative jewellery.  The idea of transparency and opaque colour influences her designs, and plastics allow her to explore this.  Simple and uncomplicated shapes and the idea of duplicating these shapes also form the basis for Rachel’s jewellery.

Not only does Rachel have a large range of small batch production, but she also likes the challenge of producing larger scale work for exhibitions.  In 2005 her first larger piece was entered into the RDS National Crafts Competition and won first place in the category Jewellery (non-precious). 

Rachel will be launching new work demonstrating the use of a laser cutter; previously her work was all hand-cut.
