Connected to our Showroom lies the workshop where we craft the jewellery. We enjoy creating beautifully hand-crafted unique pieces ta
ilored to our customers' individual requirements. Our work is mostly undertaken in Platinum, 18ct and 9ct Yellow or White Gold and Palladium. The inimitable creative partnership of Husband and Wife, Designer and Goldsmith, Rose Citton and André Viljoen. As a Designer with an in depth knowledge of Gemstones and Diamond grading, Rose loves to combine ideas and inspirations in colour and flowing movement. She possesses a unique way of getting to know each client personally, ensuring design commissions truly capture elements of their personality and convey emotion. This is the ideal complement to André, an Award-Winning Master Goldsmith, who has over thirty years experience at the bench. His close relationship with Rose allows him to fully appreciate her creative vision, taking the piece from the page and bringing it to life with balance, harmonious form and enduring beauty. Rose & André were schooled by a German Master, just like the original founder Ortwin Thyssen, in the ancient practices of the traditional jewellery maker. Over the last four decades they have sought to continue and hone this art, combining their talents to bring originality and authenticity together. All pieces are designed and hand-crafted in-house using the finest and highest-quality materials to ensure that they stand the test of time. We pride ourselves in the signature beauty, variation and precision of our jewellery and welcome you to visit our shop to experience our work first-hand. If you have a design idea you would like to explore with Rose please contact us to arrange a Design Consultation. We feel incredibly blessed to work together and be trusted with such valuable work.
