24.01.2022 In presence with NAIDOC WEEK 2020 by reopening the story telling. Dad had a fascination and love of these people he met on his journeys. Artists alike, they inspired his collections and his own art. Very grateful to have grown up around this sense of friendship, inspiration and appreciation. . . . #naidoc #australian #aborginalartists #friendship #artists #noborders #community #sharing #inspiration #payitforward #travel #explore #create #story #storytelling #heritage

20.01.2022 ‘Just going to the shops darling’, Covid ready Linda Stirling in Zorro’s Black Mask (1944) The plaited leather for the bolo ties by Smith and Poet are the same pattern they use for whips - a ‘whip plait’. It takes about 45 mins to do by hand. ... . . . #wildwest #adventure #blackandwhite #noir #noiretblanc #imagination #desertlife #desert #lasso #leather #hats #bolero #style #whip #whipplait #handmade #boloties #bolotie #handmadejewelry #smithandpoet See more
19.01.2022 Very humbled to spend some time with this man today, 91 years of age. Hadn’t touched his tools for 15 years until I rang and wanted some tips. I did not expect him to hold any tools and made it clear I would do the work if he could just watch and critique my hand, but he wasn’t having it my way There’s something very still and peaceful when watching a master work. Free hand lettering and cutting metal curves all on a 4 x 7mm silver work space! ~ Bill was an apprentice eng...raver at the age of 16 with my dad, and on his journey he spent a few years in London engraving on the Royal Family gifts and also Laurence Olivier’s wedding ring. Great stories are great stories, but nothing beats seeing the glimmer in an old eye as traditional craft skills are handed down and the knowing that he’s still got it!

19.01.2022 Metal is very reflective. Sometimes the light has to be moved off to the side to give a shadow, revealing depths and giving the scribed path it’s visibility and shape. . . . #metalsmith #metalsmithing #silversmiths #goldsmiths #jewelrydesigner #jewelrymaking #craft #process #handmade #madebyhand #consciousness #gifts #madewithlove #ethicallymade #makersmovement #smallbatch #independentartist #jewelry #smithandpoet #jewellery #metal #silver #smithandpoet

09.01.2022 Magnified vision, a super sharp point and an ability to take curves smoothly are required for this journey. Teaching myself some new tricks. Engraving. Very excited about this. Dad was a beautiful engraver and I’m grateful to find his tools still around. I have no expectation to be the same but a custom request for 3 letters has me curious. Looking forward to showing you the ring as I gain momentum and hopefully make more beautiful personal pieces for you all.

07.01.2022 Fan that fire hand sketch of a bellow by @ewanmebaby. This was a traditional tool used by metalsmiths around the world to increase the combustion of their flame and therefore heat, to then melt or anneal metal. Things are slightly different now but It’s nice to remember how skilled these ancient metal artists were and how they created such beautiful detailed work with basic tools. . . . .... #craft #tools #metalsmith #blacksmith #metal #metalart #silversmith #goldsmith #sketch #bellow #handdrawn #handmade #handmadejewelry #jewelry #history #lovehistory #stories #patience #commitment #integrity #fire #art #smithandpoet See more
