Memory Rings 🪽

Hand carved in wax and cast in solid sterling silver, each band features a continuous channel designed to hold what matters most to you. The resin inlay can be tinted in any colour, capturing ashes, sand, or something personal - a tangible way to mark love, loss, or a place that holds meaning.

Every angle gives a unique 360 degree view, so you see something different every time you turn it.

These are now available on my website

Have a specific piece in mind?

Whether you’re looking for a bespoke ring, a hand-sculpted pendant, or a piece built around a special gemstone - I take on a limited number of custom commissions each month to wax carve and cast every piece individually into a solid metal of choice.

2026 🖤

After a few weeks break I’m feeling so excited and refreshed to get started into a new year.

My main focus this year will be learning more and spending more time on solid sterling silver pieces. I’ll be working with the lost wax casting method as per last year - creating wax moulds, and then finishing the rings by hand once they’ve been cast in silver.

Beaded pieces will still be available and ticking in the background, just putting my focus into learning and creating some more advanced pieces.

Hope everyone had a relaxing break 🤍
