This is a pale green Amethyst that was supplied by the client who asked me to design a ring for it. The stone is 'pineapple' cut which refers to the faceting on the top, and was a good size at just over 1cm diameter. It has been set in to a sterling silver ring which I forged around the rub-over setting. It is now a permanent fixture on the wedding finger of my client in Amsterdam.

I have a link to an article written about me by one of my clients:

Emma has created a site offering helpful tips for people organising their weddings, while also taking people through her own experience. It is a beautiful blog with all sorts of information that could give you ideas for your own big day.

Really Chunky Bangles!
I have had some great bangle commissions and been having a lot of fun hammering some really chunky bits of metal! Here we have a Spiral bangle with 18kt gold detail. This used a strip of 6mm thick silver which I hammered and forged in to shape, then soldering on the gold decoration.
Below that is a man's bangle made from a 2cm width of Silver, 4mm thick. Inside is some engraved script requested by the client.

This is a new necklace design I have been working on. This particular one is Sterling silver with Garnets, and it was donated to an Auction in aid of Haiti. I am told it has gone to a very good home and raised a good amount for the cause. I am working on some other pieces to make up a collection and am doing versions in Oxidised silver and Black Onyx which make a great impact as it is all black. Images will follow soon...

This is a single earring that was commissioned for a wedding. The client wanted some engraving done on the front of the heart so I sent it to my engraver who is one of the best in London. He often engraves on the inside of rings for me and has a wide range of styles so it means I can get pretty much anything engraved.
Introducing the Bubble Necklace...

The top image is a silver bangle that a friend of mine wears every day! It is Sterling silver with an 18karat gold hoop that moves along the diagonal line. The piece immediately above is a silver pendant with an Aquamarine that was commissioned for a Christening present. The stone was the birth stone of the new arrival and the idea is that this can be worn once she is older and a chain bought for a future birthday. A nice alternative to the tiny bracelets that many of us have sitting in our jewellery boxes!
