BESPOKE STORIES

THE BRACELETS AND BANGLES

Over the years, we’ve crafted bespoke bracelets that celebrate milestones, honour loved ones and turn treasured heirlooms into something new. Each one is a unique expression, shaped not only by Dan Dower's craft, but by the meaning the wearer brings to it.

In the stories that follow, you’ll see how a piece of bespoke jewellery can hold a lifetime of emotion.

BESPOKE STORY

TREE OF LIFE 'TRIO' BRACELET

Specially created for one of our special customers who had already bought the matching Tree of Life pendant and earrings in solid god and wanted something significant for their wrist.

The bracelet was designed to symbolise the deep bonds within this family of three. Each tree represents a family member, standing together as a reminder of strength, connection and enduring love, with boughs spread wide to offer shelter.

This naturally inspired bracelet is beautifully fluid and tactile with accent diamonds sparkling in the leaves.

BESPOKE STORY

PURPLE SAPPHIRE BANGLE

Over the past few years, we’ve created an entire suite of jewels in collaboration with Tash.

The latest addition to Tash's collection was a flexible solid gold bangle featuring a lotus petal-cut purple sapphire as the articulated focal drop, accented with diamonds and balanced by a scattering of lilac to azure blue sapphires at the opposite end. Tash’s love for purple sapphires stems from her Sri Lankan heritage.

It’s a perfect example of the style we’ve developed with Tash - delicate yet assured metalwork, clean linear forms and strikingly cut sapphires in vivid shades of purple and blue.

BESPOKE STORY

14K GOLD MEMORY BANGLE

Tracey, a longtime collector of bespoke jewellery, commissioned this one-of-a-kind hinged bangle in memory of her beloved mother.

The bracelet features elegant Latin inscriptions around the outside - “Amor est vitae essential” (“Love is essential for life”) and “Amor matris vivit in” (“A mother’s love lives on”). Inside, intricate detailing inspired by Dan’s signature quatrefoil logo adds both structural integrity and ensures the bracelet isn't too heavy for everyday wear.

The piece is finished with a specially developed safety catch and a diamond-set mechanism, underscoring its uniqueness and craftsmanship.

“ If a picture can tell a thousand words, I believe that a good piece of jewellery can express and hold a thousand emotions. ”
