Mostly working in brass stampings, vintage cameos, metal embellishments and beads sourced from all over the globe, resurfacing the materials to create interesting finishes. She has also created a number of different metal finishing and colour techniques, giving further originally to uniqueness to her work.
Sharee draws her inspirations from the materials themselves, preferring not to restrict the label to any one material, colour or theme, instead allowing the designs to develop and come together from the gathering of materials. Having this freedom to work with different mediums and themes allows the label to remain unique. It also keeps her interested in the work and inspired to create new different collections.
