Fascinated by the craft of metalworking from a young age I obtained a National Certificate in decorative wrought ironwork by the age of 17. Having spent some time producing quality ironwork pieces, I became drawn to the intricacies of jewellery and silversmithing.
I hold a number of qualifications at advanced levels and a total of ten years experience manufacturing and repairing high end jewellery using both modern and traditional techniques.

I was fortunate to have completed my four year apprenticeship with Timothy Roe Fine Jewellers in Chichester, in 2005 winning several prestigious awards along the way.
With a firm commitment to making things to the highest possible standards I set up my own business in order to pursue my ideals of making quality jewellery for my customers using only the best craftsmanship and materials.
