Half a Day Necklace - Aventurine

Half a Day Necklace - Aventurine by South Australian artist collaboration Hello Potter Girls (Alice and Lucy Potter). 

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Alice Potter was a South Australian contemporary jeweller, who finished her Bachelor of Visual Communications at the University of South Australia in 2004, a Bachelor of Visual Arts and Applied Design (Jewellery) at Adelaide College of the Arts in 2006, and First Class Honours in Visual Arts at UniSA in 2012. Between 2007 and 2011 she was an access tenant at Gray Street Workshop, working concurrently as Technical Officer in University of South Australia's Jewellery and Metal Studio. From 2012 Alice worked as the Production Manager in the Jewellery and Metal Studio at JamFactory.

Lucy Potter has worked in the JamFactory retail department since 2011, and currently works as Sales Director. Lucy completed a Bachelor of Economics in 2005, and a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Printmaking) in 2012. 

In 2017 Alice and Lucy embarked on a collaborative venture called Hello Potter Girls, with the intention of combining their love of jewellery, print, textiles, and art objects. The necklaces in Nurtured were designed by Alice, and finished or made by Lucy using a selection of Alice’s half-made components and collected materials. Most specifically, the sterling silver “smiles” and colourful links that are synonymous with her Today Is A Good Day necklace series.
