To make a gem of character and perfect harmony, even with simple quartz, requires thought, taste and experience.
I work with wax carvings and plasticine, along with the lost method of wax casting - a technique that has been around for generations. This enables me to achieve the wildest and most sophisticated designs.
I select my stones for their individual qualities, forms or their rarity. Each one inspires a different arrangement - but, this can occasionally take some time to realise! It's like unfolding a mystery.
