Private Commissions

A cast is not a copy. Every commission begins with something that already exists, a body, an object, a piece of inherited metal, and carries part of it into a new work. Each piece is developed and made by hand in the London studio, in sterling silver, gold and bronze.

Pieces may be commissioned from existing work or developed entirely to your own. Heirloom metal can be melted down, adapted and carried into something new.
