Pieces I’ve had the privilege to make
40Ct Diamond Bracelet
A stunning double-band bracelet created with D-colour, flawless diamonds
I had always wanted to create a magnificent double-row diamond bracelet with D flawless diamonds. So when a client approached and asked for ideas for his wife’s 40th birthday, I suggested this. It was an incredible piece and a creation I’m hugely proud of.
With over 30 years of experience in fine jewellery, I combine traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design.
8.14ct Fancy Yellow Diamond Ring
An extraordinary diamond engagement ring bringing together two countries and one very special love story.
She was from Canada. He was from Australia. And when it came to creating her engagement ring, the provenance of the diamonds was particularly important to them both. We sourced a magnificent 8.14ct Fancy Intense Yellow radiant-cut diamond from the Ekati Diamond Mine in Canada's Northwest Territories, complemented by beautiful white diamonds from Australia.
Two countries, brought together in one extraordinary ring. What a privilege to have created something so personal.
Radiant-Cut Diamond Ring
My client had seen a similar design elsewhere, but it was too large for her small hand.
So, we scaled down the design, ensuring the proportions were perfect for her hand. I chose a stunning 0.50ct radiant-cut diamond as the centre stone.
My client was thrilled - a bespoke diamond ring that suited her hand perfectly.
From Conversation to Finished Piece
How it works
Stage 1
Conversation
We begin with the person, occasion or idea behind the piece. You do not need a finished design, just a reason to begin.
Stage 2
Design
Christopher develops the idea with you, considering proportion, wearability, metal, gemstones and the details that will make it personal.
Stage 3
Selection & Approval
You review the proposed design and chosen materials before anything is made. Work begins only when you are happy to proceed..
Stage 4
making and Presentation
Your approved design is made in England, then checked and presented to you as a finished piece created for you.
Proof, protection and provenance
Beautifully made. Properly documented.
Every completed bespoke piece comes with a SmartReport™, a detailed digital record available through your own ValuVault™. It keeps the piece, its specifications, photographs and important documents connected from the day it is completed.
Our valuations use the same digital-first approach, creating a record designed to support insurance, future care and continuing ownership.

Thank you so much for the excellent personal service you have provided and the most beautiful diamond necklace… I am absolutely delighted with it… I have been impressed and touched by the attention to detail.
Thank you!

From the very first meeting I knew we had made the right decision when renewing my wife’s engagement ring. Chris is thoughtful, knowledgeable and definitely delivered with his attentive service. The ring is truly truly beautiful, I have no hesitation recommending Christopher. Great job !
- J Southcott
Just to say…well what can I say! I was speechless when I opened the box!
I absolutely love it and it has such sentimental value to us. We bought the sapphire from a good friend who is no longer with us… it makes a special piece. Thank you from my heart!

Common Questions
Before Your First Conversation
-
No. Many commissions begin with a feeling, an occasion or a piece of jewellery someone already loves. Christopher’s role is to help you shape that starting point into a design. If you have sketches, photographs or a clear idea, bring them. If not, a conversation is enough to begin.
-
Every commission is individually quoted. Your budget helps guide the gemstones, scale, precious metal and design choices, with a clear quotation agreed before making begins.
-
Once you have approved your design, it takes around 6-8 weeks to create your bespoke jewellery.
-
A single jewellery item is £95 + VAT. Each additional jewellery item assessed during the same appointment is £75 + VAT. A watch valuation is £125 + VAT. If you have several items, contact Christopher before booking so the appropriate appointment time can be arranged
What shall we make?
You do not need a finished idea, a conversation is enough
