Susan Ollemans is returning to the Altfield Gallery for her annual Exhibition of Jewellery from the Asian Region.
The theme this year is on design. In
early Chinese, Indian and South East
Asian jewellery there is a sense of clean
and modern design on pieces of
jewellery made 1000 years ago. Nothing
it seems is new.
