Hello, I'm Lucy, and I'm delighted you've stopped by my website.
From a young age, I've been captivated by gemstones and crystals. My fascination began when I discovered a stunning piece of tiger's eye by the roadside as a child. This passion continued to grow, and I've cherished a significant crystal cluster throughout my life. In my twenties, I had the privilege of crafting and designing Jewellery for an African Art & Craft store, which deepened my affection for gemstones and ancient African beads. This journey led me to delve into the healing properties of gemstones, prompting me to study crystal healing and amass a library of reference books. It's important to note that while gemstones' vibrational frequencies can be beneficial, they should never replace medical care.
As life progressed, I embarked on global adventures, residing in numerous countries and assuming various roles. Currently, I contribute to the ambulance service. Some years ago, I stumbled upon the art of wire wrapping, enabling me to blend my adoration for gemstones with tangible wearable creations. I consider myself a self-taught artisan, drawing knowledge from YouTube, tutorials, books, online communities, and trial and error. Wire wrapping offers boundless creativity, where each piece is a distinctive result of following the wire's path.
My creative journey unfolds gradually, encompassing new techniques and refining my abilities. Whether it's wire wrapping, wire weaving, or beading, gemstones and crystals remain central to my work. I favour silver, copper, and gold-fill metals. Only genuine semi-precious stones find their way into my designs, sourced conscientiously for top quality and ethical origins. I gladly accept custom orders and possess an extensive assortment of gemstones, waiting to be transformed into one-of-a-kind pieces. Please feel free to reach out to me.
The moniker "Funky Posh" embodies a blend of contemporary elegance with a dash of eccentricity—a fusion of trendy sophistication and delightful quirkiness.
Sending warmth and creativity your way, Lucy
