Richard Andreucetti Irish Metalwork Sculptor and Jewellery Designer

Richard Andreucetti Irish Copper Artist Studio Work

I am Richard Andreucetti, a sculpture and artisan driven by the passion to sculpt and forge materials into extraordinary forms. Working with copper, carbon steel, silver and timber, I create distinctive sculptures and handcrafted jewellery that are as unique as the stories they tell.

Every piece you see here is designed, meticulously handmade, and brought to life entirely by me in my studio and workshop in the West of Ireland. From the spark of inspiration to the final polish, my work reflects a dedication to craft, material, and imagination.

"Forged in Ireland and sculpted for the soul"

Please step inside, explore, and experience art that is forged with heart, hands, and heritage.

About Richard

About My Art Practice:  Metal Form and Spirit in Motion.

I am a Irish visual artist, metalwork sculptor and jewellery designer based in County Clare, Ireland. My creative journey began in Dublin as a metal fabricator, welder, draughtsman and design engineer, a foundation that continues to shape my art through precision, structure and a deep respect for the materials I create with.

My art practice fuses engineering discipline with artistic intuition, producing abstract metal sculptures, relief artworks and bespoke jewellery. Each creation explores the tension between order and chaos, structure and spontaneity, a visual language inspired by both Celtic heritage and the wild beauty of the Irish landscape and it's flora and fauna .

Working primarily with steel, aluminium, copper, timber and stainless steel, I see each metal as a living material, steel’s strength, aluminium’s lightness, copper’s warmth, all transformed through heat, movement and time. My hands-on process of welding, forging and forming reflects a conversation between craft and emotion, between the fluidity of nature and the rigidity of industry.

Living on the west coast of Ireland, the Atlantic winds, Burren stone, and coastal rhythm continuously influence my work. Nature’s textures and patterns, from spirals in seaweed to the complex structure of a leaf echo through my metal forms, infusing them with a sense of organic movement and Celtic resonance.

My jewellery pieces are extensions of this practice, miniature sculptures that carry the same themes of landscape, heritage and abstraction on a more intimate, wearable scale. Each piece is a bridge between the monumental and the personal, between art and life.

In Clare’s creative community, I’ve found not just inspiration but belonging, a place that values experimentation, collaboration and the evolving story of Irish art. My journey from welder to artist feels like a circle completed: metal, fire, and form united in expression.
