A modern generation designer drawing her inspirations from local Ugandan life, it's people and their traditions for creativity when it comes to crafting decorative items from local materials and all brought together by her own hands. She offers a wide variety of handmade products from earrings, necklaces and bracelets through to bespoke ladies fashion accessory decoration.
The materials Joyceline uses are also varied and often unusual items which one would not expect in such jewellery. With a mix of bright colours expected from African culture through to uniquely shaped and crafted metal work. Authentically constructed without any use of production equipment, everything Joyceline produces is with heart felt patriotic passion through and through.
Handmade and crafted from locally sourced Ugandan materials.
Jewellery was always at the heart of my anticipation as at a very tender age as I would watch and admirer ladies in beautiful, brightly coloured accessories especially on traditional festivities. Each culture came with the reward of a dazzling show of decoration. In additional to my heart's desire towards jewellery, watching crafts people transforming traditional materials into magnificent necklaces, earrings and bracelets always drew my attention and my passion started me making my own jewellery.
I am most attracted to the use of colourful materials, especially small tiny colourful beads which symbolises beauty in my own traditional culture. Having passion, humility and dedication to jewellery and craft making, I have always approached my work with enthusiasm and explored opportunities to learn more from the various crafts people in order to improve my talent and skills.
My passion and fascination with ancestral designs drew me even more closer to my own Ugandan heritage with the affection to start exercising my God given talent on jewellery and craft making. I usually start with a mix of imaginative composition from various African traditional cultures and activities. Inspired with the beauty and nature that surrounds my mother land Uganda, I imagine a design that would represent a piece of history so that anyone would be able to appreciate the design.
