BESPOKE / COMMISSIONS
Commissioning a Bespoke Piece of Jewellery.
Engagement and wedding rings to one of kind cocktail rings,
a secret locket, life’s anniversaries, or transforming a favourite existing or inherited piece into something entirely new.
The commission starts with an idea and conversation.
I have been travelling, buying colour for many years. I have built 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 begin work 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 with actual proportions and gemstones in place.
When you are happy with the design, I make your jewellery here in my studio, using 40 years of skill and knowledge.
Once the gemstones are set, the gold given its final polish and placed in a handmade leather presentation box, your commission is complete.
There is no team. Just me.
I have a beautiful studio and showroom in De Beauvoir, London ~
57a Lawford Road, N1 5BJ.
You are welcome to meet there to see your piece take shape, with fittings along the way. Alternatively, we could meet somewhere more convenient for you.
Through the development phases we can face-to-face talk via all the usual apps, if this is your preference.
If you would like to talk over an idea please get in touch.
