One of my lovely everlasting besties asked me to make a lotus flower for her yoga teacher.
It was a joy to create!

My dear friend Aimee asked me to make her a green pendant. I searched around for a stone that she would love and found this fabulous variscite cabochon.
Symmetrical, with just enough inclusions to make it apparent that it is a real piece of the earth, in such an amazing colour, it suits Aimee down to the ground!
I know Aimee loves quirky love hearts, so I added a secret one on the reverse of the pendant. I was happy that I completed it in time it to give it to her as a birthday present. Love you Miss Aimee!
My smaller son asked if I could make three ghosts for he and his friends.
It’s handy when your mum can whip you and your besties up something special to wear!
For her birthday in December, I made my mum these art nouveau inspired earrings set with malachite, one of her favourite stones.
I love my mum! xxx
A client asked me to turn this gorgeous piece of sea glass into a pendant for his partner.
Sea glass is always so beautiful, and how lovely to be able to wear a piece you found yourselves!
Emma, a gorgeous client of mine, chose this stunning piece of haematite from my gemstone collection to be created into a ring for herself.
The stone is 40mm long, and the colour is so versatile – easy to wear with everything.
Thanks, Emma – you were a delight to work with!
Even though my usual design style is ‘striving for elegant simplicity’, I actually love the Art Noveau period – so in that vein, I designed these earrings for myself.
I’ve been wearing them nearly every day since I finished them. I’ve had quite a few comments and requests, so I may even make some more for my shop!
My lovely client Emma was kindly given some Silver Forge dollars to spend for her birthday.
She chose this one-of-a-kind piece of shattuckite from my gemstone collection to be made into a bespoke ring.
I loved working with Emma, she is so fun and has a good eye for the unusual!
I love all the cabochons I source, and it is a bit of an obsession with me! I’d love to keep them all, but that’s just silly – so one of the many joys of being a silversmith is sharing these gorgeous finds with nice people.
Once in a while, though, I come across a cabochon that I just can’t part with. This botroidal carnelian is one of those.
It’s a great ring to wear with earth tones, which I’ve been more drawn to lately.
If you’d like a custom made gemstone ring of your own, check out my gemstone collection, and let me know which one you’d like to wear!
