Lynda Salmon grew up on a farm in the lower midlands of Tasmania and has crafted and created since she was a small child. Lynda works in sterling silver and fine silver with rose gold highlights. She uses a traditional and labour intensive technique where each piece of jewellery is completely constructed by hand. No two pieces can ever be exactly the same.
