My name is Keli Bishop and I am a proud-to-be British designer, currently based in Leafy Kent. Jewellery is my passion and Design is my forte. My greatest pleasure is to create gorgeous hand-crafted jewellery that is furnished with a uniquely personal touch and oozes individuality.

I studied Design & Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts, and graduated in 2001. After pursuing a career in Illustration I quickly realised that exclusive drawing did not satisfy my creative desire. In my search for a new direction I discovered Jewellery, fell in love and have never looked back. I have since spent nine years working as a Jewellery Designer, the last four of which were occupied in the employment of a London-based design house where I was responsible for the creation of fashion-forward collections designed for some of Britain’s top High Street and online stores. Although I loved my job I thought that it was time to step out on my own, and Beau and Arrow was launched in late 2010. Running my own business enables me to spread my creative wings by designing jewellery that meets the particular needs of my clients.

Beau and Arrow’s 2011 collections boast an eclectic, edgy mix of forgotten vintage treasures, collected objects, curiosities and semi-precious stones. All pieces are lovingly handmade by me in my Kent-based workshop, where I also spend time designing and manufacturing bespoke items, which are available on request.
