Sterling silver stylized bike brooch set with white topaz stones that were found on Flinders Island in Bass Strait Australia. Hard to balance odd shaped stones but was able to by using the circles around the stones and created movement by placing claws off centre.

Blue Flower
One of my favorite design for a ring. It has a modern shank, in 9kt yellow gold, with the under bezel and setting in 9kt white . The suggestion of a flower form and scrolls harks back to the Art Noveau period. The beautiful 5mm steel blue Australian sapphire set in the middle real stands out because of the setting design which lets the light flood in under the stone Diamonds in the petals give it a delicate touch.

Mokume-gane Wedding ring
This wedding ring was made for my son. I have always wanted to attempt making mokume-gane metal and I knew that it was thwart with problems but love for my son keep me persisting. Mokume-gane is a mixed-metal laminate with distinctive layered patterns. This term describes a Japanese metalworking procedure, which comes in the form of a mixed-metal laminate with distinctive layered patterns. Mokume gane translates closely to "wood grain metal" or "wood eye metal", describing the way the metal takes on the appearance of natural wood grain. So if anyone else would like a piece of jewellery using mokume-gane metal I will be buying the alloy already made but you still end up with a unique item.
