I created this pendant for Talitha, who wanted a piece to wear in memory of her father.
The symbol is a Scouting one, which means ‘Gone Home’. Talitha will have these words engraved on the pendant when she receives it.
I hope this piece brings comfort and fond memories!
Thanks, Talitha, it was a pleasure to create this for you.
It’s been a while, but I finally got around to creating something for myself! This ring is set with some faceted cabochons of green onyx.
I think this may be the start of a new range. Hold tight!
I created this forget-me-not charm bracelet for a customer to give to her boss for Christmas.
The sterling silver chain is pre-made, but the clasps and the charms are handcrafted.
Thanks, Cherie, I hope it was appreciated!
I created this sterling silver ljiljan pendant for a customer as a gift for her partner.
The Lilium bosniacum is a lily native to Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the is national symbol of the Bosniak people.
This design is also known as a fleur-de-lys, often used in heraldic imagery. Thanks, Caitlin. I hope it was well received!
Any fans of Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers, REM or Forro in the Dark may be familiar with Atoms for Peace, an alternative rock band with some very famous names in it!
These cufflinks were specially designed to incorporate features of the AMOK album cover, and created for a lovely customer to give to her husband, a diehard Radiohead fan.
Just between you and me, these were the first cufflinks I’ve ever made – they were great fun! The cufflink backs are prefabricated sterling silver, but the rest is all my own sawing work.
I wonder what Thom Yorke, Flea, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco would think of them? 🙂
After a visit to see my gemstone collection in person, Robbie chose this piece of petoskey stone and piece of drusy agate to be made into a cuff and ring set for his partner.
I love the way the stones are completely different materials, yet still complement each other beautifully!
I finished the ring with a high polish and the cuff with a brushed finish to add some interest and set the off beautifully. Thanks, Robbie!
I created this ring for Scott to give to his wife for their wedding anniversary. He wanted to show her how much a part of his family she was by sharing his family crest with her in some way.
He provided me with some great information and some pictures of his traditional family crest. After quite a bit of design discussion, as this ring was to be feminine, we settled on using a portion of the drawing to create the feeling of the crest – I really loved this swirly winglike piece!
Using a garnet to symbolise the red that appeared throughout the family crest (and which, of course, also symbolises love), I was very very happy with the end result. Thanks so much, Scott, it was a pleasure to work with you!
Margaret, a lovely woman I met at my stall at the BrisStyle indie Markets, chose this stone from my gemstone collection, and commissioned me to create a pendant for her daughter’s birthday.
I spent quite a while deciding whether to have the stone pointing up or down – I went with down as you can see! The granulation just adds a little something, I think.
Thank you so much, Margaret, and I hope that your daughter loves her new pendant!
While I was creating the lovely Margaret Ingles her coherent wave pendant, she decided that she would love to have one each for her two daughters, too!
I was happy to create this pair of pendants to match Margaret’s.
Margaret is such a lovely person, it was a joy and a pleasure to work with her! Thanks, Margaret, you’re a treasure!
A lucky girl is going to be the recipient of this matched set of sterling silver spiral ring and earrings for Christmas this year!
Peter emailed me a description, a couple of photos and a quick sketch of the style he was after, and I took it from there.
I think the silver end cap spheres set off the hammered texture nicely!
These were fun to make, and I hope they will be well received. Thanks, Peter!
