Interview with Noon Passama

Noon Passama is a jeweller’s jeweller. Her work is immediately recognisable, with fluid and voluminous shapes, light to the touch and electroplated to an almost chromed mirror finish. Embracing the recent limitations of changes to the production landscape, she recounts her recent pivot to collaboration with fashion designer Barbara Langendijk, producing a textile/jewellery hybrid using fur as an inspiration. She also shows us some new work that incorporates a smaller and more refined approach to the chunky chain work she’s known for, laboured over and decked with heavy gemstones that is simply decadent.
