about sstutter

In a society that loves to categorise people into neat groups, Sstutter challenges conformity. While everyone is judged on their appearance, some defiant individuals refuse to be labelled. Blend into the crowd if you like, but where’s the fun in that? Don’t be limited or contained by rigid stereotypes. It’s the jewellery that belongs in a box, not you.

Welcome to Sstutter, where jewellery becomes a voice for those who are destined to be different. Dare to express, don’t try to impress. Sstutter jewellery is designed to shout loudly about who you are, not who you’re expected to be. To wear Sstutter is to scream down the bland monotony of the mundane, leaving people speechless.

Sstutter is Made For Individuals like you – unconventional, uncompromising, and unapologetic. Each piece is designed to inspire your creativity and empower you to confidently express your unique identity. I aim to amplify the personality of those fearless enough to show their true selves.

The mission is simple: to enable provocative self-expression through innovative and intense statement jewellery, making statements with passion and style.

Sstutter is a dynamic independent brand that offers original and bold acrylic statement jewellery. Each piece is handmade with care and creativity, laser-cut in my London-based studio. I began this journey in 2013 when I realised my passion for design needed to be heard. For over a decade, Sstutter has become my platform to share my inspiration, vision, and skill.

My name is Phil, and I love designing plastic jewellery that excites and inspires. Each piece I create is original, stunning, and as iconic as you are. My goal is to craft truly contemporary and collectible art that you'll cherish and want to wear for years to come.

Choosing the name Sstutter was not random; it reflects being non-linear, disjointed, impulsive, and irregular. I have a stammer and the unpredictability of having one has inspired me immensely. Having a stammer taught me to turn frustration into strength and navigate challenges with agility and ingenuity. It made me embrace spontaneity, transforming what was once unstable into a superpower. I've infused these qualities into everything at Sstutter, ensuring each piece resonates with an expert mix of excitement and chaos. Sstutter is about going your own way, making statements with edgy, daring and disruptive jewellery.

Sstutter is for fabulous people with a distinct look and an incredible story to tell. They deserve beautifully made statement jewellery that is filled with an imagination which speaks their language. Say something special with stunning designs that spark conversations and celebrate your fierce, vibrant attitude.

Self-expression is the art of being yourself. Unleash your uniqueness and show the world the power of you. Silence stereotypes - Let your jewellery do the talking.

This is what self-expression sounds like.

phil wykes - A SSTUTTER STORY

Sstutter began in 2013, but before that, I had always been drawing, making, and living in my own world. Even before it had a name, Sstutter was a part of me, woven into my passion for creativity and self-expression. Sstutter was born from a desire to bring my bold, unconventional designs to life. It became a platform for creating innovative and intense statement jewellery that empowers individuals to express their unique identities with style.

I’m Phil, the designer behind Sstutter. I come from Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, UK, and was born in 1979. I grew up during the vibrant 80s and 90s, a monumental era for youth culture, movies, music, and fashion - all of which were hugely influential to me. This dynamic period shaped my creative vision and passion for design.

My early years were filled with painting, illustration, and being captivated by video games, sci-fi, movie special effects, robots, anime, and animation. I spent much of my time in my imagination, drawing my favourite characters and completing model kits. I found myself building detailed models from the fantasy realms of cartoons and films, immersing myself in another reality. To hold something in my hand that was once only in my mind was a thrill. I realised that this feeling deeply resonated with others as well.

In 1998, I studied Creative Model-making at the University of Kent. It was great to be in a different place and to begin something new. After graduating with a BA(Hons), I moved to London, which further expanded my horizons. I was employed by major architecture firms, creating models of buildings and developing my skills with laser cutters, machinery, and various methods and media. During this time, I honed my craft and gained a deeper understanding of materials and processes by learning from some of the best makers in the industry

2013 was a pivotal year for me. Although I had always been making projects, it wasn't until someone who hadn’t seen my work before recognised my potential and encouraged me to start my own venture. That’s when Sstutter was born, and I began designing laser-cut acrylic jewellery and accessories. At the time, I wasn’t targeting a specific market niche; I simply wanted to bring my bold, unconventional designs to life and share them with the world. I believed there were people who would appreciate something unique and original, products they hadn’t seen before but that would instantly chime with them.

Today, I live in West London and dedicate myself full-time to Sstutter. It’s a privilege to see my designs being enjoyed by people globally. As a small, independent UK business, Sstutter is a one-man show – I handle everything from designing, graphics and creating to customer service, marketing, and shipping. Sstutter is truly an intimate experience, and I’m involved in every step of the process ensuring you receive unique and high-quality products.

I’m beyond thrilled to have met many of you, and seeing how you style my designs makes it all worthwhile for me. Through Facebook groups, Instagram, and events, I get to witness the journey of my creations and moods they boost. When you wear and personally style them, they take on a new life and meaning. Sstutter is a collaborative experience, and I’m thrilled to be part of it with you.
