Monet collection

Opals, blue and rainbow moonstones, amethysts and iolites or "water sapphires" are used to capture the elusive effect of light on water. The silver brooch with gold plated highlights in this collection was one of my first designs, I have added to the designs over the years and it is still one of our most popular collections.

Charles Rennie Mackintosh - Copper Rose

The iconic Mackintosh rose has been re-interpreted using a combination of copper and silver. As the copper mellows and deepens, the silver wires become more striking and the jewellery more dramatic. We are delighted that we have been chosen to supply the Glasgow School of Art, the Mackintosh Society and 78 Derngate with this special jewellery.
