I derived great pleasure from working with these London blue Topaz and from how well the finished pieces suited my client. The multiple ways in which these gemstones simultaneously absorb and reflect light and colours of the ocean, the sky, midnight, fire and ice combined.

I often get asked which are my favourite pieces of jewellery that I have made. When I am commissioned I am more about meeting people, listening to their stories and interpreting what they would like. I am more about my communing with the gemstones, the metals and my tools, the making of the individual components that make up the whole and the careful placing and assembling of them together. These art Deco, Victorian style inspired rings designed to either be worn separately or together however passed through my hands many times and found their way into my heart too..

This was happy accident. A client of mine was distressed as she thought she had loved and worn her sister's Opal ring (made by someone else) so much that the top of the Opal had become opaque. When I started to remove the Opal to replace it with another one, I discovered a perfect Opal mosaic which had been under resin. As it is so unique and although very delicate so I couldn't handle it much I made another ring to showcase and preserve it.

This was a thoroughly lovely and mutually rewarding commission from a lovely client. She has beautiful gemstones and with Gold from her previously loved jewellery together we designed a new, lighter and brighter way to combine and renew them.

I don't just make jewellery. I feel it. Every detail. When I hold a stone, my heart still races as I can already see the life it will live on the wearer's hand. 32 years in and I still feel every moment of the process - the shaping and creating, the magic of bringing a jewellery piece to life. Each and every piece is personal. Each wearer becomes a part of my story too.

I love the versatility of a stacking ring set and how they can make it possible for one to wear a meadow. While thinking about all the wonderful and weird in the world I made these inspired by the hope and renewal connotations associated too with Poppies
