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 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!
After I created this rectangle overlay ring for Cam, he decided he would like me to make him another one. He sent me a drawing of what he was after, and I created this ring for him.
The lion rampant is a traditional crest symbol, however in this instance the lion has a different meaning.
A famous trance music emblem, this Gatecrasher lion has been around for a while!
This piece was so much fun to create, and was a challenge to my sawing abilities. Thanks again, Cam, and I hope we can work together again some day!
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!
When your brother-in-law’s birthday comes around, what else do you give him but a custom made ring?
This ring is sterling silver, and I oxidised it with liver of sulphur to give it a fabulous matte black finish.
Perfect for a rockstar cool guy. While you’re marvelling, check out Silence The Sun* – a totally rad** band!
*Husbands may or may not also be part of said band
**Radness may not be just in the eye of close family members
My lovely friend and supportive customer Elizabeth had a surprise recently, when she received this ring as an anniversary present!
Her husband, knowing Elizabeth likes my work, secretly commissioned me to make it for her.
I didn’t realise who it was for until I had nearly finished making it – then I finally put two and two together. I was so pleased! Happy anniversary, guys. May you have many, many more!
Amy is visiting a couple of her dear friends in London very soon, and it will be their 30th birthdays while she is there. Amy wanted to give them something special! Together we designed a ring for each of them. A shared trip to the Andes was the inspiration for this ring:
and a love of cats is behind this one!
As quite often happens when I’m creating rings as presents, it was a challenge for Amy to find out ring sizes without anyone guessing what she was up to.. in the end she managed to get them though!
Thanks, Amy, and I hope the girls enjoy their new rings!
