Services
Bespoke Jewellery
We create unique, handcrafted jewellery tailored to individual preferences using platinum, gold, and silver. Our process involves collaborating closely with clients to transform personal ideas into wearable art. Each piece combines traditional techniques with modern aesthetics, ensuring timeless quality and individuality.
Hand Engraving
Our hand engraving service adds bespoke messages, initials, or intricate designs to precious metals. This ancient art form enhances sentimental value through customisation on rings, cufflinks, and silverware. Skilled artisans ensure precision and artistic flair in every engraved piece.
Valuations
We provide detailed insurance and probate valuations conducted by certified professionals. Our assessments consider material quality, craftsmanship, and market value to produce official documentation. This service ensures accurate coverage for treasured or inherited jewellery pieces.
Repairs
Our in-house workshop restores damaged jewellery to original condition using specialist techniques. We repair broken chains, worn settings, and aged pieces while maintaining structural integrity. Clients receive expert advice on preserving jewellery longevity.
Custom Design
We transform client concepts into unique jewellery creations through collaborative design consultations. Our process includes material selection, 3D visualisation, and prototype development.

Questions
How does the bespoke jewellery process work?
We begin with a consultation to understand your ideas, followed by design sketches and material selection. Once approved, our craftsmen create the piece in our workshop, with regular updates provided throughout the process.
Do you repair all types of jewellery?
We repair most precious metals and stones, including platinum, gold, silver, and diamonds. Our in-house workshop handles chain re-linking, stone setting, and structural repairs while maintaining original craftsmanship standards.
What valuation documentation do you provide?
We issue detailed certificates including item description, material analysis, and current market value. These documents meet insurance and probate requirements, with periodic revaluation services available for updated assessments.
Can you engrave existing jewellery pieces?
Yes, we can add new engravings to existing items or restore faded inscriptions. Our engravers work on various metals and can replicate historical styles or create contemporary designs to suit personal preferences.
What areas do you serve from Rickmansworth?
While based in Croxley Green, we serve clients across Hertfordshire and Greater London. We also offer remote consultations for design projects and accept mail-in repairs with insured packaging guidance.
