Most pieces are produced in either platinum or gold, delicately combined with the finest quality stones, such as diamonds, sapphires and rubies.

Gold
in it’s purest form is too soft for jewellery but as an alloy of 75% 18ct gold is popular through both its flexibility and range of colours, yellow, red and white.
Platinum
, meanwhile, is 95% pure, highly distinctive and extremely hard wearing. As such it offers the flexibility for both delicate stone setting and the creation of larger and bolder pieces.

Both Danny and Carolyn have gained certificates in both the identification and grading of diamonds from the
H. R. D Institute of Diamond
Grading, Antwerp.
You can always be sure
therefore that all gems
used in their jewellery
will be of the
finest available quality.
