One of my lovely clients asked if I could make simple wire earrings in the shape of initials, incorporating a bead.
What a cute idea! I don’t know if I can replicate every letter of the alphabet, but ‘L’ worked out pretty well I thought.
Thanks, Lithy! (Love your bead choice, too!)
Lenka Klikacova is a fashion designer, and she contacted me to see if I could make her some silver palm wrap bracelets for her Spring/Summer 2016 fashion show.
I hadn’t heard of palm wraps before, but they are a thing, and I was happy to create the ones that Lenka had in her mind!
Lenka’s designs are sleek and have great shape, so the simplicity of the silver band really worked well.
I’m looking forward to working with Lenka again!
My gorgeous and wonderful Granny celebrated her one hundredth birthday in October.
The family gathered for a lovely morning tea in her beautiful garden.
As part of the celebrations, I wanted to create something unique and special for her, and I decided on a box.
It was probably the most challenging piece I’ve ever worked on!
I love you, dearest Greatie, you are the best, most inspirational grandmother I could ask for, and I feel very lucky to have you!
Lovely Laura wondered if I would be able to create a similar piece to a costume ring which she and her friend both loved, as it was made in a plated base metal which had deteriorated.
It was a mercy dash to the finish line, as the ring was needed for a special birthday right away!
Although it’s not identical (the original would have been cast in a factory mould), I think it turned out ok – and I believe the birthday girl was very happy too!
Thanks Laura!
Occasionally I do stop long enough to make myself something! I confess it was over a year ago that I made this ring, and it’s taken me this long to post it.
As you can tell from its well worn appearance, I wear it all the time!
A lovely dad, George, was asked by his daughter to have me create this custom made pearl and sterling silver ring for her birthday.
I was very glad to help! Simple and stunning.
Bandar admired this serpentine ring in my shop, and wondered if I could resize it for him.
I wasn’t able to, but luckily I had another cabochon the same in my gemstone collection, so I created him the same ring but in his size.
The ring is now happily in Saudi Arabia with its new owner!
Matthew was looking for a gift for his wife, and he got in touch to see if I could create a bangle similar to this one, but with some gemstones included.
He got their small daughter to choose the gemstones from my collection. She picked garnet and lapis lazuli.
I hope this thoughtful present was well received!
Natasha contacted me after she saw my work on FaceBook, to ask if I could make her partner a ring.
After some lovely email chat, I sourced a stone for her partner, and Natasha asked if I could also turn the piece of charoite I had in my gemstone collection into a ring for her mum.
I’m so pleased with the way this turned out; I think it’s gorgeous, and Natasha and her mum do too. I’m working on Natasha’s next ring now. I love my job!
I created this custom bookmark for my client to give to her daughter’s boyfriend upon their graduation.
What a great gift for a book loving guy!
