About Claire

Claire Littlefair is a Canadian-born jeweller living in Scotland. After discovering a large chest of semi-precious stones in the basement of her grandparents' house—stock leftover from their former jewellery business in New York City's Diamond District—she began to dream of crafting jewels herself.

She has trained in jewellery-making at the Haute École de Joaillerie in Paris and City of Glasgow College in Scotland. She also teaches jewellery-making workshops in Glasgow.

Claire's style is characterized by whimsy, ethereality, and movement. She has a passion for interesting gemstones and believes preciousness should be determined by beauty and feeling rather than monetary value. In her designs, she incorporates organic shapes and flowing lines that evoke the magic of the natural world.

Claire draws inspiration from her time spent living in Paris and Scotland as well as from the Eastern art and design that she knows from growing up in a Buddhist family.
