It has been a good minute....

His and hers wedding rings.
One of my favourite young customers used the phrase “it has been a good minute” recently and it has stuck in my head…..especially when I think about posting to this website. I really like that phrase as I do her and her partners wedding rings shown above which I finished a month or so ago.
I made the wedding ring for her existng engagement ring.
I met this young couple after they were already engaged so I did not make the engagement ring. That said I have made another very special piece for her prior to recently making the wedding rings.
A friend of a customer
Diamond and blue topaz in 18ct yellow gold.
I did however make the engagement ring shown above. This customer was referred to me by an existing customer who had previously, very kindly, referred another of his friends to me for their engagement ring. I am grateful beyond words for referrals like this!

I am pretty sure the proposal for the above ring is yet to take place. Once it has I will meet with the recipient to make sure the size is right and that they are happy with the design. The diamond and blue topaz shoulder designs are confirmed but the rest of the design can be changed as part of my “Proposal Ring” process.

A not so new customer
Amethyst, peridot and pearl birthstone necklace.
The above necklace I started working on with the customer back in April this year. It was finished last month and was just recently given to the recipient this month. Unlike the previous pieces this one was made for a customer that has been with me for a decade. In fact this piece is to celebrate the couples tenth wedding anniversary.
The amethyst and peridot are the birthstones of their two children. Pearl is the birthstone of their mother. Such a privilege to help mark the couples journey through life with jewellery.
