BESPOKE STORIES

NECKLACES & TALISMANS

A necklace or pendant is more than an adornment - it’s a story worn close to the heart. Each piece begins with your vision and evolves into a design that balances beauty with personal meaning. Every detail is carefully considered.

Whether inspired by a loved one, a cherished place or a moment in time, Dan can craft a meaningful talisman that feels deeply personal.

BESPOKE STORY

14K GOLD MEMORY LOCKET

We recently brought a very personal story to life for a couple who wanted to cherish the memory of their firstborn son, who was unfortunately lost very early. We incorporated his name, his sapphire birthstone and an outline of his footprint into a three layer locket - with his three siblings represented on the opposite side with their initials and birthstones.

From the outside it looks like one of our classic tactile pebble shaped pendants; but when you open it up and look inside, you realise that a whole family is treasured and can be held close.

BESPOKE STORY

9K GOLD FAMILY TALISMAN NECKLACE

This bespoke talisman necklace was designed to celebrate a family through the language of gemstones.

At its heart is an inherited diamond, representing the father - its strength undiminished despite a historic chip along one side. Pink and purple sapphires stand for the mother and the wearer, her daughter, their colours a quiet reflection of their connection. A pair of initials, along with garnet and amethyst, honour the two sons.

Each element carries its own meaning, coming together in a single piece that keeps the whole family close.

“ I enjoy telling people’s stories through the treasures that I design and make. ”
