My Bio
Zayunu by Design means in translation "to adorn and beautify by design."

Zayunu by Design services include:

Bespoke/Made to order and Bridal service
Natural hair accessories
Group workshop and 1-2-1 tutoring
Jewellery Parties

BIOGRAPHY:

With over 2 decades of experience behind me, every piece that I have hand crafted has been with my creativity, love and care using wire and various beads, shells and semi precious stones.

The designs are also created using various traditional jewellery and self taught wire wrapping and bead weaving techniques that adds dimension and character to each piece, so that nearly every design is unique.

I am influenced by many things. My creative process is more intuitive and subjective rather than objective. Therefore I don't bound myself to any one discipline, style or cultural reference. I do however like to merge and blend together influences, processes and materials and create pieces that present themselves from that mix.

Based at Thames-side studios

Mission statement:
The aims and purpose of Zayunu by Design is to adorn and beautify others by way of my creative expressions through the medium of bead, shell, metal, semi precious stones, crystal and colour.

To enhance and compliment the natural inherent beauty within my clients with a refreshingly different approach to jewellery.

To provide bold, original and highly desired accessories which continually seeks to challenge the usual perceptions of wearable art.

I'm my shiny, happy self with a little extra sauce now. An update: I am please to say that the images have now been removed from the site. On Friday I was pleased that one of the pictures had been removed, even though it got to the stage where I had to enlist the services of a Representative in the U.S. who contacted her to remove the other image and selling page. I am happy that she was true to her word and removed my design from her site last week Saturday. I will in turn be true to mine and remove my angry blogs about Lona online. Now I can move on from this and concentrate on more positive and uplifting things in my life. Zay xx
