Rosie Nicolson
Rosie Nicolson (born Rothon) grew up in East Lothian, Scotland. Married in her teens, she emigrated with her husband and young family to South Africa where they lived for more than 30 years. Returning to Edinburgh to retire, she learned silversmithing and lapidary and took an interest in collecting Scottish vintage jewellery. A self-starter, Rosie taught herself drawing at the age of 75 and, after researching an unknown bone brooch set in silver, wrote her first essay, 'To Kill a Tiger'...
