CASE STUDY 1
Engagement ring design
Laura contacted me via email with a photo of her mum's engagement and interlocking wedding/eternity band. Interestingly, Laura sent a copy of the receipt for her mum's engagement ring which was bought in 1969!
Laura wanted a simple ring that she could wear every day to remind her of her mum.
CASE STUDY 1
Engagement ring design
We agreed on platinum as it is very hard wearing, strong and pure metal and Laura wanted to use the small diamonds, but not the small sapphires. I designed a flowing, classic design where the round sapphire is held in the centre, hugged by two arms of graduated diamonds."
CASE STUDY 2
Engagement & Wedding Rings
Joan made an appointment to see me about having her existing engagement and wedding rings remodelled. Her design brief was for a pair of matching rings in platinum that could be worn every day. They had to look good together and individually and not have any claws to catch on things.

Engagement & Wedding Rings
We were both delighted with the finished designs and I loved the matching manicure that Joan had done specially on collection day.

CASE STUDY 3
Gold Diamond Ring
Vicky posted me all of her family jewellery, her inherited diamond rings, and old family pieces along with a treasured diamond tie stud and gold watch chain from her grandfather.
The design brief was to put all the diamonds and gold in to one ring that she could wear every day, to remind her of her family. It was lovely chatting to her about the memories connected to each diamond, each stone has a special sentimental meaning for her.
Case Study 3
Gold Diamond Ring
Vicky already had one of my boule rings and loved how comfortable that was to wear, so we decided to go with that shape and dimensions for her new ring.
I was able to use her gold from her grandfather's watch chain and all her diamonds and we were both delighted with the finished design, it’s a real family heirloom piece.
Case Study 4
Sapphire & Diamond Ring
Morven called me about a diamond and sapphire ring that she wanted remodelled to fit her existing wedding ring. I had made Morven’s interlocking wedding ring to fit her engagement ring and although it was over 20 years ago I still had all the wedding ring dimensions on file.It was a simple job to remodel her sapphire and diamond ring to fit her wedding ring perfectly.
Case Study 4
Sapphire & Diamond Ring
The design brief was for a crown ring, so I sourced matching sapphires and made this pretty ring. I combined her gold, sapphires and diamonds along with some broken chains and odd earrings that she had to make this ring for her.
