Some of our silver jewellery is hand set (not cast in place) in mountings made from the latest cam-cad technology, that increases the natural beauty of the silver and the gemstone settings. With the casting the clasp-prongs are delicately tipped with Swiss-made cup bezels and burs. The stones are then set perfectly with micro-pneumatic hammers.

Our jewellery is completely free of allergy sensitive metals such as Cadmium and Nickel. learn a little more about our jewellery merchandise.
