Pair of wedding rings, 18 carat white gold. Non-matching. The couple had originally wanted their rings to be inlaid with wood. Since wood is not a durable substance for a ring, I suggested instead inlaying her ring with Mokume gane (Japanese 'wood-grain' metal). Because he is a rock climber, I suggested an inlay of bloodstone, a rare opaque green stone speckled with red, which comes from the island of Rum. 2004 |
|
 |  | | Engagement ring: 18 carat white gold inlaid with a stripe of 18 carat rose gold and set with a 3-carat triangular pink sapphire and two tiny diamonds. Matching wedding rings were made with 18 carat white gold
inlaid with a stripe of rose gold. Made for my daughter in 2005. |

|  |  | | Eccentric cufflinks. Silver, lapis lazuli, gold and garnets. Commissioned for the Russian artist Eduard Bersudsky, who refused to wear conventional jewellery. His love of the female body is acknowledged, as is his love of eccentric things.

Or go to the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh and marvel at the Millennium Clock. 2003 |
