BEN DAY ~ BESPOKE
Commissioning a bespoke
piece of jewellery
Engagement and wedding rings to one of kind cocktail rings, a secret locket, life’s anniversaries, and transforming clients existing pieces,
the commission starts with an idea and conversation.
I have been travelling buying colour for many years, building long relationships with
gem obsessed cutters and visionaries.
These are not mass produced gems, the cuts,
colours and stories behind these stones is as unique as each commission.
I bring together a selection of these natural, rare and beautiful gems for you to choose
from, then I begin working on initial drawings, your feedback and thoughts help refine the
designs until a model can be made, often in wax. You can see the design being brought
to life, actual proportions, the gemstones in place.
You are welcome to call in to see the piece take shape, with fittings along the way.
Once the gemstones are set, the gold given its final polish and placed in a handmade leather
presentation box, your commission is complete.
