Bespoke Commissions
Create unique, handcrafted jewellery tailored to personal stories and preferences. Clients collaborate through design consultations, hand-drawn sketches, and material selection. The process includes multiple approval stages with transparent pricing starting at 50% deposit. Ethically sourced materials ensure lasting quality while maintaining artistic integrity in every piece.
Heirloom Remodels
Transform inherited or unused jewellery into contemporary designs while preserving sentimental value. The process involves design discussions, material assessment, and careful fabrication techniques. Clients receive guidance on design possibilities and material limitations, with special consideration for metal types that can be repurposed in new creations.
Stone Set Rings
Learn traditional stone setting techniques in our one-day workshops. Participants select from semi-precious stones and receive step-by-step instruction on creating custom rings. The class covers metal preparation, stone setting, and finishing techniques, providing hands-on experience with professional guidance throughout the creative process.
Textured Pendants
Create personalised textured pendants through hands-on workshops focusing on metalworking techniques. Students learn texture application, shaping, and finishing methods while incorporating personal elements like names or dates. The class includes materials for one pendant with chain, allowing creative freedom within traditional jewellery-making practices.

Six-session courses teaching traditional jewellery-making skills for beginners and intermediate makers. The curriculum covers metalworking fundamentals, design principles, and fabrication techniques. Participants gain access to professional tools and expert guidance in a collaborative environment, progressing from basic techniques to complete piece creation over multiple weeks.
