I create jewellery to be worn, loved and enjoyed every day. I primarily work with diamonds, sapphires and rubies—exceptionally durable gemstones that are well suited to everyday wear. Like all fine jewellery, however, each piece deserves a little care to preserve its beauty for years to come.

To help protect your jewellery, I recommend removing it before manual work, sport, gardening or using household cleaning products. It's also best to take your jewellery off before swimming or showering.
Chemicals such as chlorine and bleach can damage precious metals and stones over time, while everyday products including soap, lotions and cosmetics can leave a film on gemstones, reducing their brilliance until cleaned.

When you're not wearing your jewellery, store it separately in its original box or a soft jewellery pouch to help prevent scratches.

Regular cleaning will keep your gemstones bright and full of light. Simply soak your jewellery in warm water with a small amount of washing-up liquid, gently clean it with a very soft toothbrush, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

As with all fine jewellery, settings naturally experience wear over time. I recommend checking your stones occasionally by gently seeing if there is any movement with your finger or a wooden toothpick. If you notice anything unusual, please stop wearing the piece and contact me. I'll be happy to inspect the setting and tighten it if needed.

Because many of the gemstones I use are individually selected and one of a kind, I recommend insuring your jewellery against accidental loss or damage. While I will always do my best to source a similar replacement if a stone is lost, an identical match cannot always be guaranteed.

I design my jewellery to be worn for a lifetime and beyond. I also offer a repair and maintenance service, with each piece assessed individually.

I work with both natural and lab-grown diamonds, depending on your preferences and the requirements of the design.

Throughout my collections, you'll find pieces created with natural diamonds, lab-grown diamonds, and sometimes a combination of both. Every product description clearly states whether the diamonds are natural, lab-grown or mixed, and identifies which stones are which. All of my designs can also be customised using either natural or lab-grown diamonds.

Both are real diamonds with the same chemical composition and share the same beauty and brilliance. The choice often comes down to personal preference, taking into account factors such as budget, rarity, sentiment and individual views on sustainability.

Whatever you choose, I carefully select each diamond for its colour, character and quality, ensuring it sits beautifully within the overall composition of the piece.

If you're unsure which option is right for you, I'd be delighted to talk you through the differences and help you make an informed decision based on what matters most to you.

I choose my gemstones for their exceptional beauty, colour, character and cut, rather than whether they have been certified. My priority is always finding the stone that best suits the design and composition.

Some gemstones and diamonds are supplied with certificates, and where this is the case, it will always be stated in the product description.

If certification is important to you, I'm happy to source certified diamonds or gemstones, or arrange for a stone to be independently certified where appropriate. Please note that certification significantly adds to the cost of the stone and, consequently, the finished piece.

If you'd like to discuss the options, I'd be delighted to advise you during your consultation.

Yes. All of my jewellery is made using 100% recycled precious metals. The casting is carried out by specialist partners who use only recycled precious metals, allowing me to reduce the environmental impact of each piece without compromising on quality or durability.

I choose these gemstones for two reasons: their exceptional beauty and their ability to withstand a lifetime of everyday wear.

Sapphires are among the hardest and most durable gemstones, second only to diamonds in hardness. They are wonderfully suited to rings that are made to be worn every day, while their extraordinary depth and richness of colour are what truly draw me to them.

Sapphires come in an extraordinary range of hues, and each stone has its own particular character. I am especially drawn to blue, green and teal, but also to delicate pinks, peach and yellow tones. The most beautiful sapphires seem almost to contain several colours at once, revealing subtle shifts in shade as the light changes. There is a depth and individuality to them that I find endlessly mesmerising.

Diamonds have a different kind of magic. Their luminosity and sparkle bring movement and light to a composition, but I am equally drawn to the extraordinary range of delicate natural and lab-grown diamond colours available. Beyond white, there are the softest lemon and earthy yellows, subtle greens, champagne and warm beige tones, through to deeper desert browns. These understated hues can be incredibly sophisticated and evocative.

Rubies, which belong to the same gemstone family as sapphires, share their excellent durability. I am drawn to their intensity and warmth, and select them for the particular colour and presence they bring to a composition.

All three are excellent choices for a ring intended to be worn every day, for life. They can withstand the knocks of everyday wear and are highly resistant to scratching, although no gemstone is completely unbreakable.

For me, this combination of beauty, colour, light and durability makes these gemstones particularly special. They allow me to create jewellery that is visually delicate and ethereal, yet made to become part of everyday life.

Every piece of jewellery is handcrafted by me, making each one inherently unique.

I carefully select every gemstone for its individual colour, character and beauty. Many of the sapphires and coloured diamonds I work with are naturally one of a kind, displaying subtle variations in hue, tone and luminosity that cannot be exactly replicated. For this reason, no two pieces will ever be identical.

If you're commissioning a bespoke piece or customising one of my existing designs, I'll carefully source gemstones that capture the same overall feeling and colour palette, rather than attempting to find an exact match. Each composition is thoughtfully arranged around the centre stone, allowing the colours, proportions and balance of the piece to emerge naturally.

As a result, slight variations in gemstone colour, size and metal finish are to be expected. These differences are not imperfections—they are part of the individuality and beauty that define my work.

If you have specific preferences for colour, tone or gemstone characteristics, I'd be delighted to discuss them with you before your piece is created.

If you're in London, you can book a private appointment to view and try on jewellery from my current collection. Appointments offer a relaxed, one-to-one experience where you can explore pieces in person, discuss fit and styling, and ask any questions before making a purchase.

If you're unable to visit, I also work with clients remotely and can provide detailed photos, videos, measurements, and guidance to help you choose the right piece.

Selected pieces are also available to view and purchase through my stockist, Tomfoolery at 109 Fortis Green Road, Muswell Hill, London N10 3HP. These pieces can be purchased both in-store and online.
Where applicable, you'll find a link to the Tomfoolery online store on the individual product page, just above the product name and in the Availability section.
