The client had a three stone engagement ring and wedding ring that was looking tied after 20 years .
So I used the 18kt yellow gold for the shank of the new ring with a line maked around the ring to represent the two rings melted together . The setting is platinum with three original diamonds as the main stones and 28 x 2pt diamonds in halos.
I am a qualified jeweller and have worked in the jewellery trade for over forty years. My apprenticeship was completed with Italian jewellers in Melbourne.
Living in Loch Sport has let me experience nature to the fullest, which influences my work. The other major influence is the Art Noveau period 1890-1914 with its beautiful organic flowing lines. This period was a reaction to the industrialization of the world and I think we need to react again in the present time to encourage handcrafted items, so we can be individuals and show our essence in what we create.
I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy making it. I can also repair and remodel your treasured jewellery. If you like any of the designs show here I can make them to your specification.
