Where to see my work
Shaped ring with cabachon
Gold ring with opal
Dimpled ring

The rings above were all made to commission - a pinkie ring (little finger) with a faceted garnet, an 18 ct gold with an solid opal and a heavy silver patterned ring.

I find rings are very personal and don't usually make them other than for myself and my wife. Below are a selection of ones I've made - all well loved, well used and showing signs of wear.

I can generally resize a ring for you and, if plain with no stones, may be able to mend it. But I always like to see the ring first.

Various rings

Vindolanda ring (with  matching bracelet)
This ring matches the design of a copy of a bracelet in the Vindolanda museum near Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland.
Swimming rings

This last pair are one of the most useful things I have ever made. I use them every week when swimming to count the number of lengths I swim. The sides have 0, 1, 2 or 3 bumps. I rotate the one on my right hand every two lengths and, after one revolution, rotate the one on my left hand. One and one-quarter revolutions on my left hand gives me my 40 lengths. Lane swimming is boring and it's easy to lose count. UPDATE. I lost one and decided to make another pair.

Silver counting rings

This is one of them. I decided to make circular rings this time. Actually slightly harder to make and, having used them, I'm not sure they offer a great improvement in comfort or conveneience.
