Our Mission Statement
Precious has evolved organically since November 2017 into a collective of over 650 makers from around the globe.
What binds Precious members together is their ambiguous relationship to notions of what ‘precious’ is.
Makers who wish to become part of this group either follow this line of thinking or work in ways that challenge
traditional jewellery making through materials, techniques or concepts.
