Aillie Anderson is a Silversmith and Jeweller whose work draws inspiration from the built environment around Glasgow, particularly the modern architecture and industrial structures of the city and aims to highlight appreciation of the overlooked details found within the urban setting. Graduating from The Glasgow School of Art’s, Silversmithing and Jewellery Design in 2017, her work focuses on a unique combination of distinctively textured, scored precious metal alongside hand-cast jesmonite to create a divergence between material quality, surface texture and weight. Aillie’s work accentuates the scale of the existing structures through reinterpretation into visually stimulating, precious pieces of worn adornment and silverware.

In 2018, Aillie was awarded a Goldsmiths' Craft and Design Council, Gold Award for Small-workers 3-D Design for her Trio of Textured Sterling Silver and Jesmonite Bowls, of which she was also granted a Goldsmiths’ Precious Metal Bursary to create in 2017.
