Meet the Maker.
My name is Zoe and I am the hands behind Sozo Silver. I began my creative journey when I was 9 years old, selling my jewellery designs in my parents shop.
After graduating from university with a degree in Travel and Tourism, I spent seven and a half years wandering the world creating a life that I loved.
I taught myself to hand stamp in 2016 whilst living and working in New Zealand. It was at this time that my love for silverware began. To this day, I spend full days at antique fairs and second-hand markets, carefully handpicking every piece that catches my eye and feels ready for a new story.
I married my love for vintage, secondhand and mindfulness. When I am not in the workshop, you will usually find me wandering antique fairs, local markets and out in nature, or spending time with my loved ones especially Nova, my beautiful new puppy who came into my life on Easter Sunday.
Meet Nova.
Nova is the newest little member of the SOZO SILVER family and comes with me to the workshop every day.
She'll also be joining me on all my buying trips, and will be by my side at Devon County Show, Dorchester Vegan Market and Sidmouth Folk Festival, so if you're visiting, do come and say hello.
A family-run dream.
Handmade with love.
I love to be able to put a smile on people's faces and spread light out into the world through my creations.
Every item is crafted by hand and made to order in my studio in South Devon.
Each piece is stamped individually, the old fashioned way. No laser printer, no machines, just with my own two hands, metal stamps a bench block and a hammer.
Due to the technique of hand stamping, spacing and alignment will vary, making every piece unique.
No words will ever be able to describe the freedom and warmth I feel being able to do the job that I love.
The Spooniverse.
Where the magic happens. On May 1st 2022 we moved into our new container studio in the heart of East Devon. Surrounded by other creatives, we couldn't think of a better place to be.
