J and G brought in a few items to us that they had inherited from their grandmother. They each had one pair of jade earrings and one pair of opal earrings.

People tend to get carried away when custom designing, and will to try to fit all their ideas into one item.

A recent redesign project - H had this pendant that her parents gave her as a teenager, decades ago. She liked the colour of the stone but needed a new setting in order to wear it again. However, she was a little worried that the stone would be too big for her to wear as... Continue Reading →
L came to us a few years ago to make a wedding ring to sit nicely around her existing engagement ring.

P brought in a diamond ring that used to be her mother’s. It had a large diamond, but it was set extremely high in an out-dated style, so it couldn’t really be worn.

A couple of years ago, Angie had a necklace shortened with us. We removed several diamonds to make her necklace the right length. Using the removed diamonds, we made a pendant and a pair of earrings. But even after making those two items, there were a few diamonds left, so she kept them to use... Continue Reading →
We can only be as daring as our customers. It takes a customer who is open to an unusual design, for us to be able to make it. We can sketch and suggest wild options, but they only become jewellery if the customer wants to wear it. This customer was very open to suggestions. She... Continue Reading →
