Bespoke
I am always happy to discuss designing & handmaking a bespoke piece of jewellery for yourself or a loved one.
Anything from simple silver earrings to more complicated pieces such rings or necklaces.
Customers see me by appointment at my workshop to discuss their hopes & ideas for the piece - although online video calls are also possible.
During the discussion process, ideas & requirements are established & together we explore the possibilities.
Sketches are then drawn up & submitted for the client to consider, with adjustments & adaptations made as necessary.
Once a design is agreed, a deposit is taken & work commences on the final piece.
Interested? Please contact me..
Garnet & Citrine Ring

Sterling Silver, 9ct Gold, Garnet & Citrine Adjustable Ring
This particular ring was a surprise gift, which involved a number of client discussions to identify the right design for the eventual recipient.
Garnet & Citrine Silver & Gold Bangle
Some of the making stages shown with this bespoke sterling silver bangle. 18ct gold was added, along with texture, to compliment pieces of jewellery already owned by the client. Garnets and Citrines were added to marry it to the adjustable ring shown above to complete this two piece set.
Kyanite & Rainbow Moonstone Silver Earrings
The gentleman was looking to create a modern design for his wife, which could be worn daily and comfortably, yet make her feel glamorous. Sterling Silver earrings set with Kyanite and rainbow Moonstones.
Sapphire & Rainbow Moonstone Silver Ring
Another gift, the stones here were chosen to compliment the family heirloom Sapphire Victorian ring already worn by the recipient. The freshness of this design allows the ring to be worn at the same time as the family piece, but with a modern twist. The advantage of an adjustable fit means that sizing has a little flexibility. Always helpful when a ring is a surprise!
Sterling silver adjustable fit ring, set with two Sapphires of different tones of blue, and a rainbow Moonstone.
Tourmaline, Citrine, Garnet & Buttercup Silver Ring
I designed this ring for my Bucks Art Weeks directory entry in 2020, to represent a cross over two of my core styles. An adjustable multi-stone ring, made in sterling silver, combined with my trademark buttercup. Tourmaline is one of my favourite stones - such a wide range of colours are available and often with lovely depth. Watermelon and green are amazing. Stone settings are individual as every stone is unique. Only once the stones have been set can the build of the main structure take place. Sadly, due to the pandemic, that event was cancelled like so many others.
