About LEVEE

LEVEE founder and maker, Beth Chesser began her creative career in music, sound design and animation but went on to study jewellery manufacturing and design at the British Academy of Jewellery in both Birmingham and London. During this time, she developed goldsmithing skills and in-depth knowledge of precious metal casting, working in the 3D printing department at the renowned Birmingham Jewellery Quarter casting house, JewelCast.

It all began with the Mulitplane camera… True to her multi-disciplinary background, Beth based her first collection; ‘Multiplane’ on the traditional multiplane camera, initially used by Lotte Reiniger and Disney. The geometric, clean lines of LEVEE jewellery encourage the viewer / wearer to look deeper into the precious metal centre, much like how the multiplane camera created a depth within the animated scene.

Meticulously crafted, LEVEE jewellery combines traditional and modern techniques to form jewellery that is unique and memorable with a focus on customisation so that each piece can match the wearer’s unique aesthetic.
