The Beauty and Magic of Bespoke Jewellery.

When you invest in a piece of jewellery that will be with you for a lifetime, you can spend a lot of money on an ‘off the peg’ piece, but why not go for a piece of bespoke jewellery. By exploring the world of bespoke jewellery, you can create a piece that has a little bit of you in the design process.

It is a common misconception that ‘bespoke’ means high cost and out of many budgets. Realistically a jewellery designer can work with a client to create something specific to them around their design aesthetics and within their budget. There are many beautiful makers out there, so make sure you pick a jewellery designer whose style you really connect with.

This is why I love my job, turning my ideas into treasured pieces with the inspiration of the individual who will enjoy it every day at its heart. I have always been intrigued by antique jewellery, dreaming up the tales they may hold within their precious metals and stones. I love hearing my clients stories of their unworn sentimental heirlooms which we can use to design something new they will love for a lifetime. The necklaces that hung from their mother's neck that they played with as a child, the rings that they watched as the sun caught and danced light across a room, signalling fairies were coming.

These little indulgences are often commissioned to mark an occasion, from birthdays to weddings and the passings of loved ones, this is where your story starts. I want the process of designing collaboratively with you to be as exciting as the final piece. I know it is a luxury to do this so I want you to enjoy every moment. I love to learn about you, to create a treasure that is intrinsically yours. Your loves, style, and life help make something you can treasure forever and bring a little twinkle to you every day, the piece your family will talk about and covet!
