Michael Michaud - Silver Seasons Jewellery

The Silver Seasons jewellery collection, designed by Michael Michaud, captures the beauty and exquisite detail of nature in metals, pearls and stones. Artist Michael Michaud was born in Cleveland, Ohio and raised in Westport, Connecticut. Michael studied at the Rochester Institute of Technology's prestigious school for American craftsmen, graduating in 1980.

Living in the Connecticut countryside and working near New York City's flower district, Michael's love of nature began to combine with his love of jewellery. Today's collection is a combination of Michael's exceptional knowledge of jewelry making and his love of nature. He has perfected the technique of creating models from natural elements and, after models are made, manipulating these "copies of nature" into beautiful jewellery. Using bronze, sterling silver or gold and natural stones and pearls, Michael's designs have become well known for their remarkable craftsmanship and beauty.
Taylor & Vine currently offer a small collection of Michael Michaud Jewellery which includes necklaces, bracelets and brooches. The Taylor & Vine Michael Michaud Collection is due to expand in Autumn 2008, so watch this blog!

Azuni Jewellery

The Azuni story began over 10 years ago as the vision of Ashley Sinclair Marshall, now Azuni's creative director. Ashley took up jewellery design at London Guildhall after having worked as a top chef.

His early inspiration came during a trip to Guatamala. In 1995 following two years of travel between Guatamala and London, the first Azuni collection was launched. The silver collections launched in 2000 and continually updated combine handmade silver beads and charms with crystal, carved shell and semi precious stones, creating a look that is unmistakeably Azuni.

From their London workshop all Azuni jewellery is made by hand from sterling silver and hand picked semi precious stones to create timeless classic jewellery with exquisite colouring, perfect for the 21st century woman.


Taylor & Vine offers a range of Azuni jewellery which has been carefully chosen from Azuni's Deco Tooth, Hearts and Pearls and Talisman Collections. Products include necklaces, bracelets and earrings. All items are beautifully crafted, offer exceptional quality and are a joy to wear
