About Sue Whitfield, artist

Sue began "making jewelry" when she was about six years old.... She and her sister, Annie, used to take the leaves from poplar trees and link them together, stem to leaf, to make necklaces. Her grandfather was also an inspiration. As a young man he had worked in a circus as a one armed jewelry maker. Using copper wire to make chains he formed necklaces, bracelets and rings. Later he used old silver tableware to form other pieces of jewelry and household items such as drawer pulls.



Sue's daughter, Terry Kennedy, began making jewelry in 1999 and encouraged her mother to follow in her daughter's footsteps. Thus with much support and guidance from her family and friends in 2000 Sue designed her first hand crafted piece of jewelry.

Sue uses primarily natural elements and each piece of her jewelry is a unique one of a kind item. You can expect great attention to detail in Suzy's Hut jewelry. Even the clasps are artfully done and unique.
