Leah Billas

Leah Billas, a silversmith based in Calgary, Alberta, creates art jewellery that seamlessly combines wearability and durability with an exploration of shape, colour, and exture. Using traditional silversmithing techniques, Leah crafts each of these time-and-labour-intensive pieces with meticulous attention to detail.

Drawing inspiration from the vast tapestry of art history, her creations emanate a timeless allure. The properties and malleability of silver, along with the captivating array of colours, textures, and patterns found in gemstones, serve as her endless source of inspiration. Embracing an experimental approach, Leah allows the finished pieces to emerge organically and often divergent from her initial intentions.
