Fairtrade gold miners join Ute Decker & Linnie Mclarty’s  Jewellery Pop-Up Shop private view


Ethical Jewellery Pop-Up Shop by Ute Decker & Linnie Mclarty 

This February award-winning designer-makers Linnie Mclarty and Ute Decker are celebrating the launch of Fairtrade and Fairmined gold by showcasing their preview gold collections available for commission in Fairtrade gold  alongside sculptural and architectural jewellery art in silver during a month long pop-up shop.

Both named as “future stars” and pioneers to work in certified Fairtrade and Fairmined gold, Linnie Mclarty and Ute Decker have come together to open up a  pop-up gallery as well as the  world of ethical jewellery. 

The pop-up will take over a gallery space on East London’s Columbia Road - an area renowned for its historic and bustling Sunday flower market, independent boutiques and art galleries.

The  artists will personally be available in the gallery Thursdays to Sundays as well as by prior arrangement.
