HOW TO WORK WITH ME

I dedicate most of my time to working with long-term national and international clients and collectors. However, I'm always open to new clients, regardless of where you reside. Our team is fluent in English, German, Chinese, and French. While our home base is in London, UK, we frequently visit clients in the US, Europe, UAE, Far East, and South Africa.

INITIAL CONTACT

Typically, initial contact is made through a recommendation from an existing client, via my website, or personally during my bi-annual exhibitions. Given the personal nature of designing and crafting my creations, I highly value meeting my clients in person or at least via video calls.

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

Creating a perfectly designed and flawlessly made piece is a meticulous and lengthy process. This involves sourcing exclusive platinum alloys and using state-of-the-art techniques. Most of the pieces showcased on my website find their future homes well before completion and are no longer available for purchase. To maintain the exclusivity of my one-off pieces, I generally do not replicate them. However, I am open to discussing variations of past designs that may have inspired you and might consider special commissions. As of February 2025, there is currently a waiting list of up to 18 months for special commissions.

UNIQUE GEMSTONES

As a fourth-generation goldsmith, I have inherited a rare collection of natural coloured diamonds and hard-to-find gemstones. I regularly source unique stones from diamond and gemstone bourses in Antwerp and the Far East. Occasionally, I acquire exceptionally rare stones to add to my collection. If you have a vision for a bespoke design featuring a unique gemstone in your favourite colour or shape, I may open my safe box for you to choose from my collection. However, I do not sell gemstones separately. Even though these unique gemstones and diamonds may constitute a significant part of a piece's value, my primary focus remains on unique designs, techniques, and high-end craftsmanship.

READY TO WEAR

Depending on current demand, I usually have a limited selection of finished pieces available for immediate purchase or pieces in the final stages of completion.

I understand that not every client can accommodate my waiting list. Please contact me to explore available pieces in the short term.
