About
We create jewellery that means something to the owner. It's more than aesthetics, there is an emotional connection as each piece has a story; either from the materials the piece is made from or the process in which it has been made.
Justin has always strived to create interesting contemporary jewellery that will be treasured and worn for years to come. We work within four distinct styles and welcome commissions. We are also very happy to remodel your own gold and gemstones into a new and exciting ring.
Sandcast Rings
Justin developed a unique method of sand casting using beach sand. The sand not only creates a unique texture on each ring, but tiny grains are captured in the gold. You can choose the beach sand your ring is cast in, so you can carry a piece of that special place with you everywhere you go. People send us sand from all over the world, and our collection is over 700 sands strong.
Wood Rings
Our handmade wood inlay rings combine wood with recycled precious metal or titanium, creating a beautiful contrast between the natural wood and the clean lines of the refined metal. You can personalise your ring by choosing the wood it is inlaid with, choosing one from our collection, or sending us some of your own.
Rock Rings
Inspired by the granite cliffs of Cornwall, our Rock collection was designed to incorporate a texture reminiscent of the cliffs and offers a timeless and elegant portrayal of the Cornish Coast - an ideal embodiment of this most beautiful area of Britain.
Planished Rings
Our planished rings are finished with a gently hammered texture, which gives the piece a beautiful, dappled appearance. The collection combines contrasting tones and textures through inlays and overlays of gold in silver.
Background
Justin began making jewellery in his London bedroom straight out of University in 2000. Driven by the lack of contemporary jewellery for men and inspired by combining unusual materials with precious metals, his range started with wood inlay rings.
Couples seeking the alternative, something a little different but not too off the wall, started commissioning Justin, and slowly, we began making more and more wedding and engagement rings.
The team has also grown over the years; there are now eleven of us working from our small workshop in the woods on the outskirts of Penzance, Cornwall. We function as a family, each chipping in ideas and contributing where we can.
We aim to have as little impact on the environment as possible; as of 2019, we have pledged to use only fairly traded and fully traced diamonds and gemstones. All of our gold is recycled, and we promote the upcycling of customers' own materials. Sustainability is key to maintaining a small business that enables a high quality of life for all involved, from employees to the sourcing of our materials.
Visit the Workshop
We welcome visits to our workshop by appointment. You can expect a fun and relaxed experience. We have a wide range of jewellery available for you to try on. It's the perfect way to get a real feel for what we do: ask all your big and small questions and have your finger professionally measured.
