Jessamine KENDALL neé Leach (1920-2014) Glass and silver bead necklace Stamped, length 43cm.Jessamine had been inspired as a child by watching her father Bernard Leach unpick the glass beads of an old lace bobbin, to re-make it into a necklace for her sister Eleanor. Later on when visiting Patrick Heron and his family, she had been fascinated by seeing Susanna Heron’s jewellery, as well as by visits to the V&A and the British Museum. She loved ancient beads and collected coral, amber, cornelian and lapis lazuli amongst other things. She began working from home, putting the beads she had collected together with her own silver beads to create necklaces and earrings. She had her first exhibition at the newly opened Casson Gallery in London, which opened in May 1974. This was followed by showing her work in the annual ‘Loot’ exhibitions at Goldsmiths’ Hall and taking part in selling exhibitions in galleries around the country. Whilst developing her creative practice, she formed a new relationship with Dicon Nance, an exceptional craftsman who had been an important assistant at the Leach pottery and to Barbara Hepworth. Together, they moved to an old Devon longhouse on Dartmoor, where Dicon provided invaluable practical solutions to many technical problems encountered by Jassamine in her jewellery making as well as helping her to create a beautiful garden from a farmer’s hillside field. She went on to become a member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen and exhibited her work there as well as at other galleries. Excerpts from ‘The Hidden Twin Daughters’ by David Kendall.
