Ruby and Diamond Ring

Rich red rubies and diamonds (mined; not lab grown) retrieved from older rings have been refashioned into a bold Art Deco design. Four rubies are placed in a rectangular setting with six larger diamonds and eight smaller ones. The design is certainly eye-catching, though it has an elegant and classy touch. Such high purity gold offers...

Wedding Rings

Being asked to create wedding rings is always an exciting endeavor. Two individuals deeply in love, seeking to formalise their commitment. The chosen metal was white gold, complemented by rich red Burmese rubies and diamonds, meticulously channel-set within an 18ct band. Upon measuring her finger size, we found it suitable for alternating three rubies and...

Horseshoe Ring

This amazing design was commissioned by a male client following a style of Ring that he had wanted for a long time. The 9ct Gold was supplied by him and this wide Ring emerged with the Horsehoe in White Gold and a Horse Head charm nestled in the middle. The Diamonds are graduated and the...

Aquamarine Halo Ring

This ring replaced an Engagement Ring and 2 fitted Wedding Rings, all in White Gold. It was decided to have just the one ring with ALL the gemstones together. So much easier to wear! After considering a number of styles this one was chosen to accommodate not only the smaller Diamonds which were removed from...

Round Sapphire Ring

The client presented me with a lovely round blue Sapphire from Sri Lanka, 7mm in diameter, a birthday gift. We then chose a design for a ring that was simple but very elegant and timeless in style, a statement. The result is an 18ct White Gold ring with a very wide surround of metal around...

18ct Gold Remakes

These items were remade from old jewellery. The 6 marquise shaped stones were removed from their settings and all the gold submitted smelted down to start afresh. The design was a collaboration with the client. The pendant and earrings are light and comfortable to wear on a chain that was part of the original...

Engagement & Wedding Rings

The Engagement Ring has already been featured in the Folio. Here it is photographed with the Wedding Ring in 18ct Gold. Fitting a Wedding Ring takes time and patience but is worth the effort to get that perfect fit as is shown here. The Wedding Ring was later set with 5 Diamonds....

Seahorse Pendant

An 18ct Gold handcrafted pendant 50mm in length domed and engraved to represent the body and features of this unique and fascinating sea creature. 10 brilliant cut Diamonds decorate the belly, 10 Tsavorite green Garnets are set along the spine with a Ruby for the eye created a special gift....

Peridot Ring

I was asked to source a good sized Peridot for a male client to set in a ring to be worn on a daily basis. A rub-over setting is best for this centred on a sleeve of 18ct Gold overlaying a wide tapered Sterling Silver shank. There is detailed cut-out work on the side as...

Triangular Opal Doublet

A male client gave me a triangular opal doublet and asked me to make a 9ct Gold pendant for him. He asked that the stripe of colour be along the bottom. This was fun to make as it is a simple setting with an open back. And here is the result. The triangle is not...
