Conventional boundaries were never going to work for Teresa Crickmar. She is a jeweller, teacher, creative facilitator, Reiki master, 90s grunge kid at heart, and proud owner of an ADHD brain that finds focus through hands-on making. Teresa believes creativity is not a luxury reserved for artists; using our hands to create is a fundamental gift. That philosophy shapes both sides of her work. 

​

Her work begins with a single word: Dea, Latin for goddess, referencing Gaia, the life-giving earth. Dea + me reflects the simple reality that the maker, the process, the materials, and their origins are all part of one unbroken system. Fusing, forging, and fabricating recycled sterling silver, 9ct gold, and vibrant gemstones, Teresa turns fire, pressure, and raw elements into contemporary pieces that visibly wear the marks of their own making; raw, intentional, and full of life. Her work is made to mirror the intricacies of life journeys; jewellery that feels meaningful because it genuinely is.

​

Through Creative Therapy Space Ltd, Teresa runs her hands-on workshops just outside Cambridge, UK. Her classes offer a grounded environment to slow down, learn traditional bench skills, and reconnect with your own creative rhythm. A nurturing space to learn honest craftsmanship, built on patience, real human connection, and curiosity. Step up to the bench and show up exactly as you are.
