__**Contextualisation:**__
Jewellery is a very popular form of body adornment. Jewellery has been around throughout history and across a range of cultures. In the south of France jewellery is very important and can enhance anyones look. Although there are a number of small jewellers here in Toulouse thay all seem to sell the same types of jewellery. On a recent visit to Scotland I noticed that the local jewellers are selling pieces that are very similar to those that are on sale in Toulouse.

__**Problem:**__
A new jewellers shop is opening in Toulouse, the owner wants to sell pieces of jewellery that are stylish, a little different and above all else affordable. The jeweller wants local jewellers to submit designs that could be made locally and sold through her shop, she has asked a number of young designers to desigh her a range of pieces that she could sell. All pieces must be reliable, not easy to break, and should be aesthetically pleasing to the eyes of the user.

__**Brief - basic initial specification:**__
I will be designing jewellery for this shop owner, the jewellery I design must represent value for money and appeal to the local market. If the designs are accepted by the shop owner I must be able to make copies of them in cmall batches, it would be beneficial if each piece that is batch produced could be customised very quickly, giving it the appearance of uniqueness.
