Jenny Lees is a Scottish silversmith whose practice centres around the creation of refined, hand-crafted silver objects that fuse traditional techniques with a contemporary design sensibility.
A graduate of the Glasgow School of Art, Lees has established a body of work defined by clarity of form, tactile surfaces, and an intuitive approach to function and beauty.
Working primarily in sterling silver, Lees explores the relationship between object and user, producing both functional pieces and more conceptual, sculptural forms. Her practice draws on the discipline of classic silversmithing, raising, forging, and fabrication, while embracing a pared-back aesthetic that allows the inherent qualities of the material to shine.
Lees has shown her work at Scottish and UK-based craft exhibitions and fairs, and she is recognised for her attention to detail and finely finished surfaces. Her pieces often feature gentle curves, minimal embellishment, and an elegant simplicity that speaks to a deep respect for the craft. Her style sits confidently within the lineage of Scottish contemporary silver, honouring its traditions while expressing a distinctly modern voice.
