Design Stories
Jarem’s ring
The design brief here originally began by looking at Celtic pattern and branches/nature within a ring design. Also the integration of the colour red, to symbolise a connection to the wearers homeland. The client was presented with 6 initial designs, from there they chose one that was developed further on paper before being modelled in Silver.
As it became clear that the ring had a very organic and 3 dimensional feel to it, Fiona felt the best option would be to carve the design in wax. This allowed for this beautiful layered leaves to grow around the setting of the ring.
The stone was narrowed down to a Ruby or Garnet, and an Indian Garnet was selected. An excellent choice for the stunning contrast with this 9ct Gold ring.

Testimonials
“I was lucky enough to get a necklace from the Cherry Blossom collection as a gift and have received so many compliments while wearing it. When friends 30th birthdays came around I knew they would love pieces from Fiona’s collections, they make such special presents.
Having watched Fiona at work, I’ve seen the love and care that goes in to each piece of jewellery and have such an appreciation for her amazing creations. I can’t recommend highly enough.”
“We just wanted to say thank you so much for the ring, she has repeatedly said that it’s the most beautiful thing she’s owned and best ‘gift’ ever! It really is amazing and just perfect for what we wanted.”
