A piece made for one person
Commissions begin with a conversation and a sketch. Metal, file and polish follow. You see it at every stage, and nothing is finished until it is right.
How commissions work →Precious metal shaped by hand in Findon Valley. Made new, or made again.
The maker
Adrian has worked precious metal since he was fifteen. Everything here is made, mended and finished by his hands, in his workshop in Findon Valley.
There is no production line and no catalogue to choose from. A piece begins with a conversation: a memory, an occasion, or a box of jewellery that has stopped being worn. What comes back is something you will want to wear every day.

Commissions begin with a conversation and a sketch. Metal, file and polish follow. You see it at every stage, and nothing is finished until it is right.
How commissions work →Resizing, chain and clasp work, stone setting and polishing. Bring in what has been sitting in a drawer and it will be looked at properly, by hand.
What can be repaired →Inherited rings, broken chains, single earrings. Hallmarked gold and silver can be melted and reborn again as the same metal, carrying the same story, in a form you will actually wear.
Adrian films every remaster: the piece as it arrives, the metal in the fire, and the finished work. You are sent the film with the jewellery, so there is never any question about what happened to it.
A description, a photograph, or a rough idea is enough to start. Every enquiry is answered by the person who will make the piece, and if it is easier, he will come to you.
