Commissions
Bespoke designs and private commissions are always welcome, from silver and gold, to platinum; from engagement and wedding rings, with a speciality in repurposing broken or tired pieces from the back of your jewellery box.
Helen prides herself on creating truly unique and unusual jewellery, the process begins with a face to face free consultation at her workshop / boutique ( or telephone / emails ), this is followed with the design process, from initial sketches to final detailed drawings by hand, along with an accurate quotation, then the creation begins.
