Bespoke Design
From idea to modern heirloom. Collaborate with Emma to design a completely custom piece of fine jewellery crafted entirely around your vision, aesthetic and story.
Every bespoke piece begins with a memory, milestone or story. Work directly with Emma to design an entirely original piece of fine jewellery - from alternative engagement rings and custom wedding bands to unique milestone markers.
Whether you want to customise an existing design, create something completely new or remodel heirloom jewellery, we can collaborate to craft a unique piece of wearable art. Discover more below.
Every heirloom begins with a personal journey.
Here is what to expect from our first conversation to your finished piece
The Process
Step 1: Initial Consultation (Complimentary)
In person or online | 30 mins
Bring your ideas, mood boards, or sketches to a complimentary consultation, held either in our Dorset studio or virtually via video call.
This is where you share your story and discuss your design inspiration, preferred precious metals, stone options, timelines and budget to outline the initial brief.
Step 2: Designing & Sourcing
2 - 3 weeks
Following our discussion, I’ll translate your ideas into hand-drawn or digital sketches. We’ll collaborate closely via email to refine the design and I will provide tailored quotes for your design.
Once the design is confirmed, a 50% deposit secures your commission. This allows me to begin sourcing your materials - from ethically sourced diamonds, vibrant sapphires and birthstones to match your vision, alongside your choice of certified recycled solid gold.
Step 3: Making
6-8 weeks from confirmation
Your piece is brought to life using a blend of traditional and modern goldsmithing techniques. Back in the studio, the metal is meticulously hand-finished to refine its unique surface textures, gemstones are hand-set and your piece is polished to perfection.
Step 4: Completion & Delivery
Upon completion, the remaining balance will be due. Once settled, your jewellery will be securely shipped via Royal Mail Special Delivery.
Your finished bespoke heirloom arrives beautifully packaged, ready to be worn and loved.

Frequently Asked Questions

CUSTOM: Any existing design can be customised to your preference. Choose from solid yellow, white or rose gold, and let me source the perfect gemstones for your piece.
BESPOKE: offers a truly one-of-a-kind piece. Whether we evolve elements from my existing collections or create a completely original design that is deeply personal and meaningful just for you.

While inspired by the delicate, ephemeral nature of woven threads, the final piece is cast entirely in solid, substantial gold or platinum. The textile texture is permanently deep-set into the metal, designed to withstand daily wear for a lifetime.
