Hi, my name is Alix, and I am the metalsmith behind Ridgetop Jewellery.  I started silversmithing in 2020 and for the most part I’ve been self-taught.  Learning as I go, with a lot of trial and error. I’ve been creating for as long as I can remember. Growing up I loved making jewellery out of found items like beach stones and bike tubing. Over the years I have developed my skills and refined my technique to the point where I am now working with silver, small bits of gold and gemstones.  My jewellery is inspired by the landscape around me but really, I just make what I think looks cool.  Every piece I make is handcrafted and one of a kind, inspired by the natural elements and jagged peaks of the Canadian Rockies.

Handcrafted in my garage studio. I pour my heart and soul into each piece. It is important to me that the art I create is not only beneficial to myself and those who wear my jewellery, but also to the small scale.  I ensure all my materials are ethically sourced, recycling my metal to ensure nothing goes to waste. My intention is to create unique jewellery for everyday wear that feels approachable!
