ARTIST STATEMENT





Amber Cooper-Green is a Nottingham-based jewellery designer and a graduate of Birmingham City University’s renowned Jewellery Design and Related Products course (2016). She creates bold, statement jewellery that balances experimental design with everyday wearability.
Amber works with a mix of reclaimed and recycled materials, including hardwoods, scrap acrylic, recycled silver, and pre-loved knitting needles. Her pieces are designed to be comfortable and easy to wear while still feeling fashion-forward and distinctive.
A key process in her work is lamination, which allows smooth, seamless transitions between wood and acrylic layers. This technique helped shape the visual language of her collections.
More recent pieces are inspired by the simple forms of pebbles and the natural instinct to hold them. Their rounded shapes and tactile qualities influence the design and feel of the jewellery.
Each piece is individually handcrafted and carries a sense of warmth through smooth, sanded surfaces and earthy wooden tones. These natural elements are contrasted with bursts of bright colour, creating a striking balance between natural and man-made materials.
