It would be wonderful to work with you to create something special & unique. Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss having some bespoke jewellery made, or you’re looking to commission a handmade engagement ring or wedding bands.
All jewellery is designed & handmade in my workshop in Sheffield.
Take a look at the gallery below for some wedding ring inspiration! Different styles & shapes can be created for brides & grooms, so get in touch if you’d like to chat through your ideas!
And here are some bespoke engagement rings that I have designed & created with some lovely clients. We can work together to bring your ideas to life, or if you are a little unsure of exactly what you’re looking for, I can help to guide you through the process of choosing the perfect ring!
The best thing about having a piece of jewellery handmade is that you can be a part of the designing process from the beginning.
We will start with a meeting in the workshop, or discussions via phone or email & chat through your initial thoughts & ideas. We can use my previous designs as a starting point, or create something totally unique.
In particular for wedding & engagement rings, we will chat through the various precious metal & stone options, keeping your budget in mind.
Following this initial meeting & once the design is finalised, I will get back to you with various quotes & design options. When you have made your final decision & want to go ahead with the order, I will take 50% of the total as a deposit & then the final 50% upon completion.
The process of making the piece, once the deposit has been received, is typically 8 to 12 weeks. However, if you need a piece more quickly than this, I will do my best to fit your timescale!

Looking for a bespoke engagement ring or wedding bands? Here are some tips on working out your ring size.
Ring sizing in the UK uses an alphabetical system from A to Z, including half sizes. To work out your ring size you can use the following methods:
Using a ring you have that fits the same finger – you will need to take the measurement from the inside of the ring in millimetres, taking the measurement as accurately as possible by sitting the ring on a ruler. I can then work out a rough size from the diameter measurement.
If you do not have a ring at the correct size, then you can use a length of stiff cardboard or flexible plastic to get a rough finger size. Cut the length to the width of the ring you are looking to buy. Wrap this around the base of the finger & make sure that you can slide it up over your knuckle. I can then use this length as a guide for making the ring.
Where possible I would always recommend having your finger sized by a jeweller. If you live close to Sheffield then you can book in to have your finger sized by me, or if not then head to a local jewellers.
