Marque Remake


This ring was created using a single stone engagement ring, an eternity ring and a few extra diamonds. I was able to use the clients gold as well from the rings, so she still has her original engagement and eternity rings just in an other form. This appeals to the sentimental side of people.
The client liked the marque cut so I was able to make the shape using her diamonds and by setting the diamonds close together an illusion of one big diamond was formed.

ART Deco was the basis for this design, with curves and angles together.
9kt yellow gold ring set with a stunning topaz. This topaz has an unusual checker board cut on the top of the stone and is 10mm in diameter . There are two princess cut diamonds on the sides of the ring to add to the statement this ring makes when you wear it.

Pearl Elegance Slider






Example of design can be made with different colour  gold and pearls.With this piece of jewellery I have blended Stirling silver chain with 9kt rose gold leaves. There is a loop hidden by the leaves which the chain slides through allowing the pearl to be worn at different lengths.
Set with black/blue dyed Fresh water pearl.
This necklace can be worn in different ways. the chain can be tight around your neck with the pearl on a longer drop or a looser chain bringing the pearl closer to the leaves . This make a very versatile item which can be worn with lots of different neck lines of clothes.

Star garnet ring


This ring has a number of my favorite components in it to make a design. First of all sterling silver and 9kt rose gold together I love the softer silver colour with the pink hue of rose gold.
The twisted rope look of the shank is a process I mastered in my apprenticeship because I made meters of it, (you would think I be sick of it instead I love the design) small twisted rings were all the rage back then. The last component is an unusual stone, which in this design is a garnet with a star left unpolished on the table of the stone. The red of the garnet goes well with the pink of the gold.

Smokey Cuff


This silver cuff bangle was great to make . It had to match a ring and pendant the client already owned. The large piece of Smokey natural quartz meant the final item would be a chunky piece of jewellery which you don't get to make very often. I was happy with the end product and so was the client

Adjustable Bangle

This bangle was made for a child . The Grandparents had brought her a hollow hinged bangle which lasted five minutes. So I melted that bangle and other gold that the grandmother had to make a solid bangle that you can adjust which should last her years.

Diamond Braclet


This bracelet was a remake. The client had chains that were too worn to repair, odd earrings and rings she didn't like. So I unset the stones and melted the gold 9kt. The round links are three wires twisted together and the oval links have three diamonds grain set in each.

Blue gum


This 9kt yellow gold pendant has gum leaves enhancing the blue green opal triplet. It was sent to Germany so
I wanted it to have an Australian feel to it.

Ocean Culture


This ring was designed by my daughter for her VCE graphic folder.
It is made out of 9kt yellow and pink gold. Set with a cultured pearl and diamonds. I think it captures the creatures of the sea.
