Her work is strongly influenced by the natural environment and she likes to keep a raw handmade quality. Helen uses a lot of lost wax process Incorporating directly from nature into her designs.

Title: A Place To Call Home The suitcase represents for many adventure, rest and excitement. For many, however, the suitcase tells a sadder story of flight.
