Commissions

unique designs, just for you

Sometimes only something made uniquely for you will do. I’m happy to work with clients on making something as a bespoke commission within my design parameters.

I can work with a huge range of gemstones and make pieces from old gold. By working together with you I can create a truly special piece of jewellery.

truly yours

Symbolism and sentiment are the foundation of nearly every piece of jewellery in the world.

So why not have something that is totally enriched by your involvement in the design at every stage.

 

why commission a peice of jewellery?

 

Do you have an heirloom piece that has great sentimental connections but just isn’t you? Or are you looking to have a piece of jewellery made for a special occasion or in memory of someone special? Take a look at my Gallery pages to gain an insight into what's possible.

I love creating pieces based on local landmarks and locations that are meaningful for people. Do get in touch and I can create your special place in your commissioned design.

The process

 

We’ll have an initial consultation to get to the nitty-gritty of what sort of piece you are looking for, bridal hairpiece, engagement ring, anniversary gift, birthday present, memorial jewellery of just because pendant or earrings.

We need to discuss budgets and timeframes and then we can look at designs and materials. I offer Sterling Silver, 9ct and 18ct gold, and silver gilt, along with many gemstones. We can discuss work in platinum too.

A face to face appointment is always easiest, but I’m comfortable offering a video call and email service too.

The whole process can take up to 8 to 10 weeks as we can sometimes be reliant on others to secure materials and services that can have varying time frames. Please read my Terms and Conditions before beginning with with this service.

 

Commission Testimonials

  • I can highly recommend the commissioning process to anyone considering it. Just to add a small thing, it's not just an easy process but really fun and enjoyable and so lovely to add your own ideas and creativity. It's not prohibitively expensive either. I couldn't have been happier with the outcome, I love the beautiful pieces you created and you captured exactly what I had imagined, thank you.

  • Katherine took on a commission from me and right from the start of working on the design she knew exactly what I had in my mind. From start to finish the whole process was made so easy and it was completed very quickly. To say I'm pleased with my necklace is an understatement, it’s beautifully made and I don't want to take it off!

    Thank you Katherine.

    — Wendy Irwin

  • We were very sure we wanted a bobbin and so knew it would likely have to be created for us. The bobbin is a beautiful piece! Perfect. Having been an amazing designer and seamstress for over 50 years; Mum was just blown away when she saw it. (We gave it to her on a family Zoom) She absolutely loves it !! We can’t say thank you enough!

    — Cathy

  • It is always exciting to talk to Katherine about an idea, and then be directly involved in the design of your own unique piece of jewellery, and see it created so beautifully.
