Haytor Heather & Gorse Ring
Bespoke Commissions
Are you looking for a special gift that encapsulates a special Dartmoor or Devon location, plant, animal or geology?
I love creating bespoke commissions! These can be rings, bracelets, pendants, earrings or other types of objects made from precious metals.
Step 1.
The process begins by you telling me about a favourite Dartmoor or Devon place and the kind of jewellery you would like.
Sometimes it’s an engagement or wedding ring, jewellery to celebrate a special birthday, occasion or a commemorative piece.
Step 2.
The next stage is...
I visit those special Dartmoor or Devon locations, observe, make sketches, take photos and feel into the atmosphere.
Step 3.
Initial design sketches
Next, I hand draw 3-4 four designs, they may have forms or colours that evoke the place or have more literal representational elements such as specific plants or rock formations.
Step 4.
Making Process
You feedback your thoughts and I develop your chosen design into a hand painted rendering. This is a lovely keepsake to accompany the finished piece.
Then I go to work, making a test version, followed by the finished piece.
It’s a lovely process!
