| I
have been lucky enough to spend my whole working life at my bench, since starting
as a student in 1968, accumulating skills and developing ideas to create a
distinctive range of jewellery and silverware. In the early days I employed
assistants and my work was sold through Liberty's. Aspreys & Boodles, as well
as leading galleries, but now I prefer to work alone, making each piece myself
in order to allow greater opportunity for creativity, so I supply only chosen
galleries and enjoy collaborating with clients on private commissions.
