Laura has been making jewellery since 1990, originally repairing and restyling pieces donated to the charity shop where she worked, until her interest grew and her talents developed, requiring more supplies than the shop could provide, around 2003 she started attending craft fairs, as a fundraising tool for Against Breast Cancer, a charity focused on research into the secondary spread of breast cancer.

Laura combines many techniques such as stringing, knotting, mixing beads and crochet techniques and she enjoys trying anything new that doesn't involve specialized equipment. When returning to her native Italy she enjoys seeking out unusual materials and inspirations. Her work has been featured in the Meller Art Gallery , Witney and in many editions of the UK 's first beading magazine, “Bead”, which also ran a profile of her work in 2007.

She believes that a piece of jewellery should complement and enhance the wearer's clothing, not make a statement in its own right and she therefore tends towards simple and classical styles with the use of colour playing an important part. The underlying link in her work is an economy in the use of material, dictated as much by tastes as by necessity as all the takings from her sales go to Against Breast Cancer.

This year she has joined a group of friends to form Spare room Arts and together they attend local carnivals and fairs as well as organizing small specialized jewellery craft fairs.
