Abigail studied Silversmithing and Jewellery at Loughborough University School of Art & Design graduating in 2001. Following her degree she spent a year at Bishopsland Workshops in Oxfordshire, and in 2004 she undertook a residency at Edinburgh College of Art. She is now based in Cornwall and teaches jewellery, silversmithing and metalwork techniques for Contemporary Crafts at University College Falmouth; and teaches short courses at West Dean College, West Sussex.
Her bowls and vessels are created using a hand raising and sinking technique. This involves hammering a sheet of silver using a variety of sand bags, hammers and metal stakes.
