Seed Pods on Suffolk country lanes — One of a Kind Textile Art

One-of-a-kind botanical textile artwork by Sue Studd
Inspired by seed pods found in Suffolk
Metallic thread, glass beads and freshwater pearls

Turquoise seed pods turn a detail from Suffolk’s country lanes into a richly worked textile scene. Sue imagines the plants just before a cold snap, using metallic thread to bring a suggestion of frost across the surface.

THE HANDS BEHIND THE PIECE

The Magic of Fireflies and Dragonflies
Suffolk, UK

Sue Studd brings a teacher’s curiosity and an artist’s eye to silver clay. Working in Suffolk, she builds jewellery around the small details of the natural world: a dragonfly’s wings, a leaf’s branching veins, the outline of a shell. Her background spans painting, textiles and primary teaching; today, she makes fine silver jewellery and shares the craft through hands-on workshops.
