Simon Barber

Simon is a fifth generation jeweller from Co.Cork, Founded in 1869, the family business has passed from generation to generation, and it's in the family workshop that Simon honed his skills alongside his father, Dermot. Having left home to study art and then horology, Simon returned to begin experimenting and creating what would eventually become his own range of handmade jewellery. Simon's designs are inspired by a love of the natural world, with its wealth of textures and organic shapes. Rich in texture, you can feel a love for the Irish landscape, its shifting skies, rolling rivers, crumbling ruins and rich native woodlands. It’s a story that lives on with every tap of the jeweller's hammer.
